Trinity Nano MLX 8bit

Trinity Nano Preview is a preview of Arcee AI's 6B MoE model with 1B active parameters. It is the small-sized model in our new Trinity family, a series of open-weight models for enterprise and tinkerers alike.

This is a chat tuned model, with a delightful personality and charm we think users will love. We note that this model is pushing the limits of sparsity in small language models with only 800M non-embedding parameters active per token, and as such may be unstable in certain use cases, especially in this preview.

This is an experimental release, it's fun to talk to but will not be hosted anywhere, so download it and try it out yourself!

Trinity Nano Preview is trained on 10T tokens gathered and curated through a key partnership with Datology, building upon the excellent dataset we used on AFM-4.5B with additional math and code.

Training was performed on a cluster of 512 H200 GPUs powered by Prime Intellect using HSDP parallelism.

More details, including key architecture decisions, can be found on our blog here
