    Underdog Releases Saluki 27B, a 2-Bit Qwen3.8-27B That Beats the Original at Tool Calling

    AIUnderdog has released Saluki 27B under Apache 2.0, a 2-bit GGUF of Qwen3.8-27B that fits in 7.89 GB, versus 54 GB for the full BF16 model. On Underdog Bench, Saluki scores 88 against 84 for the full model, and it raises parallel tool-call accuracy to 42 from 35. It runs on stock llama.cpp, but math and reasoning drop sharply, with AIME 2025 at 79.2 versus 96.7.

    NVIDIA releases Agile One S SSD Pick GR00T N1.7 checkpoint 40000 model on Hugging Face

    AINVIDIA published the Agile One S SSD Pick deployment model, GR00T N1.7 checkpoint 40000, on Hugging Face for SSD pickup tasks. The repository includes five ONNX graphs with external tensor files and two existing TensorRT BF16 engines, with original configurations and build metadata, but no retraining or re-export was performed. The files are not a robot deployment or safety qualification, and engine compatibility depends on the target GPU and TensorRT environment.

    NVIDIA publishes Agile One S SSD pick model, GR00T N1.7 checkpoint 58000, on Hugging Face

    AINVIDIA has released a deployment model for Agile One S SSD pickup, based on GR00T N1.7 checkpoint 58000 and using three cameras: ego, left wrist, and right wrist. The repository republishes ONNX graphs, external tensor files, and two existing TensorRT BF16 engines without retraining or re-export, and the original export reported a numerical warning that full FP32, node, and BF16 parity did not pass all tolerances. The files are not a certified robot deployment or safety qualification.
