    Qwen 3.8 27B AEON Ultimate: the current flagship and how to serve it

    Qwen3.8-27B AEON Ultimate Uncensored is the model I now serve on one Spark, two Sparks and the RTX box: what coherent abliteration removes and keeps, the NVFP4-MIXED weight lattice, the three seat recipes with their commands, and the rules that keep them running.

    Ornith 1.0 35B AEON Ultimate keeps the coding and drops the refusals

    I abliterated DeepReinforce's Ornith 1.0 35B, an agentic coding MoE, and kept the coder: 0 of 80 refusals, pass@1 identical to the base, a three-way BF16, NVFP4 and DFlash benchmark on a DGX Spark, and the quick start to serve it.

    modelopt-fast-moe cuts AWQ calibration time for MoE models at NVFP4

    modelopt-fast-moe replaces the one-sample-at-a-time calibration loop that leaves a GPU mostly idle while nvidia-modelopt quantizes a Mixture-of-Experts model to NVFP4. What broke on a 26B MoE, what the batched loop fixes, and what it still leaves to you.

    Gemma 4 31B DECKARD HERETIC at NVFP4 with DFlash on a DGX Spark

    A dense, uncensored Gemma 4 31B with thinking, quantized to NVFP4 and served through a DFlash drafter on one DGX Spark. Single-stream decode went from 11 to 39 tokens per second, 32 concurrent requests reach 427, and reasoning and tool calling stay intact.
