It's over $100k.

Cheaper than an entry level human. But I've never used a model that size for development so idk if they could replace it. The work I do with even nemotron 550b, it's so dumb it's infuriating. Same with the free Google one (for anything sanitized/generic)

Try Qwen 3.8 27b or the antirez ds4 0731 quants

Can run on MacBook m5 or new m5 studio or m5 studio ultra or rtx 6000 pro.

I have it on my 7900xtx but haven't compared it just yet. I might though. Honestly what I need is a lack of knowledge trained into the model. Maybe 27b will be better. I need it to want ground truth data, not hallucinate based on quantized distilled documents from training.
