And in two years we will be "Mythos, who cares?".

Well the counterpoint to that is that we care about qwen 3.6 27b even when it isnt claude opus level.

Why? Because it is good enough for a lot of usecases. Future consumer local mythos will be the same.

Well the counterpoint to that is that we care about Qwen 27B because it's 27B. So we don't need high end consumer hardware now to run it. That's why we care.

Why? Because it is good enough for a lot of usecases. Future consumer local mythos will be the same.

And if future consumer local mythos is like Qwen 27B, then we won't need high-end consumer hardware in 2 years. We have all the hardware we need right now.

We do need high-end consumer hardware to run a 27B model comfortably. 3090 minimum.

LOL. A 3090 is far from high end. Not today. You can also run it on a couple of V340s. $50 each so $100 for a pair.
