Besides updates to our 14B, and 70B, we have a new LFM2-based 1.2B, Llama 3.2-based 3B, and Qwen 3-based 8B, all with class-leading Japanese language capabilities.
Per usual, lots of details in the Model Cards for those interested.
Happy to announce the release of Shisa V2, our latest generation of our bilingual Japanese-English language models. After hundreds of ablations and months of work, we're releasing some of the strongest open Japanese models at 7B, 8B, 12B, 14B, 32B and 70B!

My weekened project ended up being doing some testing between torchtune, axolotl, and unsloth. I *think* it's a 1:1 comparison of what LoRA fine-tuning performance looks like between the different hardware I have in my dev boxes (4090, 3090, 7900 XTX, W7900) with a few other interesting tidbits.
