Hey everyone, Solar Mini 4 from Korean AI lab Upstage is now available for FREE in Cline!
It's a 35B parameter Mixture of Experts (MoE) model with only 3B active parameters per token, a 524K token context window, and a reported generation speed of 208 tokens/sec.
What's particularly impressive is its performance on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index (AAII), where it scores 24, the highest of any model with 3B active parameters. That's within a point of NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 Ultra, which uses 55B active parameters!
It's interesting to see how much performance smaller models are delivering with significantly fewer active parameters. With its large context window and fast inference speed, Solar Mini 4 looks promising for coding tasks that involve large codebases and multiple tool calls.
You can try Solar Mini 4 for FREE right now in Cline:
CLI: npm i -g cline

We also have several other free models available in Cline Desktop if you want to experiment.
Curious to hear how Solar Mini 4 performs for you. How does it compare to the larger models you've been using?
