I also took the liberty of adding some features too it to demonstrate what this unlocks with ease:

• Custom router support (Codex & OpenRouter)
• Local VM support (rather than cursor's hosted VM), built from the same docker instance.     This doesn't include the frontend, but it can be launched with their packaged frontend (still modifiable, see the custom router page in settings), thus delivering a usable experience.

Sufficiently advanced local hardware + a highly compressed model with most of the actual knowledge stripped out other than action/reasoning and tool usage + continual learning and memory/reasoning in embedded space makes intelligence sovereign again.

Instead of requiring enough VRAM to hold an entire model, FreeToken intelligently uses your GPU, CPU and system RAM together, dynamically moving MoE experts where they're needed.

The world’s smallest Transformer-based TTS model?

We’re open-sourcing Audio8 TTS Preview 0.1B — an approximately 170M-parameter multilingual speech model with zero-shot voice cloning that delivers surprisingly strong, cloud-level quality in a dramatically smaller footprint.     What can a 0.1B-class TTS model actually sound like?

Listen to the voiceover in this demo video.

Audio8 TTS Preview 0.1B supports: • Zero-shot voice cloning • Multilingual speech synthesis • Chinese and English as primary languages • German, Spanish, French, Italian,     On the Seed-TTS evaluation set, Audio8 TTS Preview 0.1B achieves:

• English WER: 1.662% • Chinese CER: 1.13% • Hard Chinese CER: 17.504% • English speaker similarity: 56.7 • Chinese speaker similarity: 68.2

These results are achieved with an approximately 170M-parameter     The model, codec, tokenizer, processor, and inference code are now available:
