im running it on my desktop with about 30 t/s on a computer from 2 years ago with a tpu bolted on. im really good at researching things, its my job. i do science™️. its a little worse at researching things online than i am and rarely hallucinates. its especially good with unlimited search toolcalls. i was able to debug a problem in my code that would've taken me all day to figure out but after quite a lot of wiresharking and pushing logs to qwen i was able to resolve the problem in 45 minutes. its also often able to find unpaywalled scientific articles that are hidden in every major search engine which is very useful when anna's archive can't pull through.
these things are getting fairly impressive to me and i am generally very skeptical of them and skim everything they do. qwen is doing some tremendous work especially in democratizing them as general use tools. 30 t/s isn't great, I have to wait quite a bit for it to think, but its better than feeding a ton of my data to some lab somewhere.
