We're working on more finetunes for the newest Qwen and Gemma models, and we've also started working on the agentic-first datasets for Esper 4 :) we're going to make open source better and better for your work!
Please note that real life financial and family concerns have popped up and have imposed unfortunate limitations on our ability to devote time to our open-source work :( If you would like to see Esper 4 and our other releases speed up instead of slowing down, this is the best way you can help us: sequelbox/SupportOpenSource
No matter what, we'll keep fighting and we won't give up!
We should really have a release date range slider on the /models page. Tired of "trending/most downloaded" being the best way to sort and still seeing models from 2023 on the first page just because they're embedded in enterprise pipelines and get downloaded repeatedly. "Recently Created/Recently Updated" don't solve the discovery problem considering the amount of noise to sift through.
Slight caveat: Trending actually does have some recency bias, but it's not strong/precise enough.
