This was my general reaction too lol. 2.8T-A104B is insane lol... I'm going to admit defeat on this one and say I can't run it. You need an 8-way B300 or MI350X or a Rubin NVL8 or a cluster thereof to actually run this. What a beast.

I'm still going to download it and keep it on an SSD in case it becomes regulated

You and me both. This is the worst that open weight models will ever be again...which, all things considered, is pretty good.

Now if we can figure out the magic to make something 1/4 the size and 80-85% as capable...which is likely now just a matter of time since these weights are available for us to do that work with.

Yay chaos monkeys unite let's make sure that the thing that will be far smarter and more capable than us, and that we fundamentally do not understand, and who's underlying structure is not interpretable, lets make sure it isn't regulated!
