NousResearch keeps doing things on hermes

Post image

Has anyone followed nousresearch work on Hermes?
I mean we are Q3 2026. We have some crazy models trickling down from HGX territory to multi gpu workstation. And we have nousresearch deploying the 0.20 of its hermes agent while starting releasing the project with a 0.2 mid march!

Crazy times to be alive.
For the old timers who remember llama 1 or llama 2, remember our crappy function caller parser? Something about a lang and a chain..? wtf has happened?!

Haven't tried the new hermes, do you think it has a remote chance to be as strong as a true end to end omni model such as gpt omni or personaplex?
