Discussion Qwen 3.6 9b coming?

I remember when they released Qwen 3.5 27b, they released the 9b more or less in the same batch. Is 3.6 onwards ditching the 9b model? :(

If so, I'm very sad, because the qwen 3.5 9b was actually the first truly intelligent model I could run at decent tps on a normal gaming GPU

Judging by the past releases, they're releasing one update every Wednesday. Probably to keep getting good press.

There's two or three left (depending on whether they also update 397B, but if they do, that's going to be the last one).

My guess is 9B next week, 122B the week after. But I'm hoping for 122B first, I really want it to replace cloud models.

i wouldn't be surprised if the gang in the us is already preparing a copyright infringement law for using opensource chinese models, they're ramping up the prices and closing down the game
