 | Saw this on a youtube video, repo is https://github.com/MiniMax-AI/OpenRoom it's a MiniMax project. I'm Running on Qwen_Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-Q6_K in the image mainly just because that is what was loaded in memory, and have tested with 27B (obviously a lot slower) on my inference. I imagine https://huggingface.co/ArliAI/Qwen3.5-27B-Derestricted would be used by a lot of guys with this project for ... planning to build thermonuclear devices to take over the world, or just gooning or whatever. I just submitted https://github.com/MiniMax-AI/OpenRoom/pull/29 to add llama.cpp, pretty simple change just removed the required API key requirement mainly and add a dropdown option for llama.cpp. [link] [comments] |
LocalLLamMA men of culture, MiniMax Openroom seems to work fine on Qwen 27b.
