AI overview

Recursive released Flint, a coding model for laptops that is free to download on Hugging Face under the Apache 2.0 license, which allows free use and modification. The company says a small team built the model from scratch in under four months with help from its Eureka Machine research system. Flint activates 2.5 billion of its 40 billion parameters per task. Recursive reports that it generates about 131 tokens per second on an M4 Pro MacBook Pro, while acknowledging that it needs more guidance than large paid coding assistants.
