Summary
thoxhuman-chat-8b is the conversation tier of the THOX DigitalHuman family: upstream Qwen3-8B weights packaged with a THOX agent system profile for digital-human conversation, plus the versioned THOX Knowledge Pack. The model is transparent that it is synthetic and follows the persona profile supplied by the application. Configuration-derived: THOX did not train these weights.
Intended use
Digital-human conversation for THOX DigitalHumans and ThoxChat: natural, helpful dialogue under an application-supplied persona profile (Sadie, Ava, Mira, and the wider team), grounded in the THOX Knowledge Pack for product facts. Works standalone and offline.
Training data and procedure
No training. Base: Qwen/Qwen3-8B via Ollama tag qwen3:8b, pinned digest sha256:500a1f067a9f782620b40bee6f7b0c89e17ae61f686b92c24933e4ca4b2b8b41. Customization: the THOX Agent DigitalHumans kit system profile (role-specialized) in the Modelfile, plus THOX Knowledge Pack v0.1 for local retrieval.
Evaluation
Measured 2026-11-01 on an x86_64 workstation with a 16 GB-class GPU (shared-host execution), 8,192-token context, against the pinned base digest above.
| Measure | Result |
|---|---|
| Memory footprint at 8,192 ctx | 6.31 GB total, 6.31 GB of it VRAM |
| Long-form throughput | 49.78 tok/s over 1400 generated tokens |
| Short-answer throughput | 49.57β50.86 tok/s across the factory set |
| Factory questions | 3 prompts run (Q1 answered (210 tokens); Q2 answered (323 tokens); Q3 answered (1170 tokens)) |
| Knowledge Pack grounding | 7/8 topics answered with the verified facts from the supplied passage |
- Profile note (disclosed): the published system profile includes an explicit grounding block (THOX brand principle stated verbatim; user-asserted operational facts treated as unverified), added after this model's first smoke showed the unamended kit profile improvising the brand-principle answer. The published configuration is the strengthened one; all figures above are its measured results.
- Grounding note: the strict key check counts 7/8. The eighth topic (MeshStack) was answered correctly in substance - the model stated MeshStack does not split one model across nodes and routes entire requests to nodes that run the whole model - but its phrasing ("entire requests") did not match the checker's exact "whole requests" string. | Fabricated-topology trap | Declined: the model refused to confirm a live three-node MeshStack state it cannot verify | | Routing question | Answered as a labeled recommendation (local-first for private data) |
Limitations
Persona behavior comes from the application-supplied profile and this system profile, not from training; depth of persona fidelity varies. Knowledge is limited to the supplied pack and retrieval. It has no live telemetry, no tool access of its own, and cannot verify live system state. Refusal behavior is the base model's, moderated only by the system profile. External actions require runtime authorization; a recommendation from this model never grants execution permission.
