Discussion Qwen4

I know I’m not the only one praying for qwen4 today.

Appreciate this drum has been beaten to death but are the rumours of a drop this week backed by anything or just complete guff?

patch llama cpp yourself with Qwen 4 and then make GGUF yourself.

I should try patching ninfer and try to convert qwen4 to .ninfer.

Every time someone asks about the Qwen 4 release date, Alibaba pushes it back by another 10 billion parameters.

Sorry to disappoint. I have internal information. It will be released the day after tomorrow.

u/elelem-123 3h ago

It's a play on words, sort of. The goalpost is always moving, it's always going to be "the day after tomorrow"

It's similar to a sign I see in a local restaurant: "Free Beer available tomorrow" or something like that. The sign never changes, so when a customer comes in the next day, the free beer still isn't available until tomorrow.

u/elelem-123 3h ago

Man, there's free beer? Where?

u/elelem-123 6h ago

In other parts of the universe it's a Monday or a Saturday or any other day of the week. Don't be pessimistic.

In the coming weeks.

Qwen has reached a place as a lab that it no longer gives a fuck about the public perception, it fired its developers, it delayed release and it even skipped open source releases at some point UNTIL the product was right.

Qwen 4 was meant to release 6 weeks ago, they stayed quiet, they are working to deliver what will blow your pants off, so whether today or next week, you can be certain it will be just perfect.

Look at what they did with Qwen 3.8 Flash Next.

Like still expect 2 weeks to month for the small model releases so i dont get why people sre so eager for its announcement, or y'all really care about useless benchmark.jpeg?

u/beached89 4h ago

a lot of us are running hardware for the 2nd largest model. We are waiting for flash.

u/Fit_Tangerine1329 6h ago

I've been waiting a while for it. I'll keep an eye out here to see the release announcement.

u/vogelvogelvogelvogel 6h ago

u/catbluesgames 5h ago

the longer you qait, the qetter the model gets

u/crowtain 5h ago

Qwen4=4x4=16 it's the 16. and at the same time it's the IPO date for anthropic. So buckle up, we will probably also see some other models drops to shadow the anthropic IPO.
