It's a Qwen fine tune that's benchmaxxing a few sets of question types, and it's obviously nowhere near beating Opus 3.8 in real usage. Nothing to see here. Normally, I'd give them a pass because at least it's open source, but then I read > Raising pre-seed. So we welcome all angels and vcs Which basically gives away that they're trying to fool investors into giving them money by exaggerating their results.
