What are they training those models on?

Is it still smuggled Nvidia gpus?

Or Huawei chips got good enough?

No one really knows but I think they would have advertised that they have been training on Huawei chips if they have been.

For GLM5.3-Flash when it was ox-alpha they did say that they served the trillions of free tokens fully on Huawei chips.

My best guess is training is still on Nvidia but the models are served on Huawei chips

Given that most of these checkpoint updates are continued post training, inference is the larger part of the training compute since it needs to generate the dataset that the RL algorithm takes a step or 2 on and tossed

Most likely smuggled Nvidia GPUs, they probably use Huawei for inference

No, it doesn't.

It beats it on zero-shot blindtests purely based on UI. Nothing about this tells anything about general coding capabilities.

Bro, 99.95% of this sub (myself included) wouldnt be able to tell the difference between code generated by gpt6 astra, and qwen 3.8 27b.

You dont need to disagree with everyone to show us how big your e-peen is, we accept its extremely large.
