We are launching testnet with the pre-training of a 40B parameter LLM:

- MLA Architecture
- Dataset consisting of FineWeb (14T) + FineWeb-2 minus some less common languages (4T), and The Stack v2 (1T)

Mapping Uncertainty at Inference Time - _xjdr

We’re here to put the power of artificial intelligence into the hands of the many rather than the privileged few.

Nous Research announces the pre-training of a 15B parameter language model over the internet, using Nous DisTrO and heterogeneous hardware contributed by our partners at Oracle, Lambda Labs, Northern Data Group, Crusoe, and the Andromeda Cluster.

Today we are launching the Forge Reasoning API Beta, an advancement in inference time scaling that can be applied to any model.

The Forge Reasoning engine is capable of dramatically improving Hermes 70B to reach parity in some categories with OpenAI's o1 (full).

Since our first version of Hermes was released over a year ago, many people have asked for a place to experience it. Today we're happy to announce Nous Chat, a new user interface to experience Hermes 3 70B and beyond.
