NEW SPECK UPDATES:

Just hit #14 and #15 with out FIRST models on Open SLM Leaderboard. The models were trained on 5B tokens, while competing with similarly sized models trained on more than 6-20x the data.

A new base model Speck1.5-140M being trained right now on a higher quality corpus and will be released soon.
SpeckChat3 is coming very soon with 1 million samples, specifically designed to post train small base models.

Also, just to clarify stuff, we will NOT release anything that is NOT MIT licensed EVER. Openness is needed in small language research.

Thanks to everyone supporting the project, and stay tuned for new releases!

SPECK UPDATES:
1 New instruct model tuned on top of Speck1-140M: specklabs/Speck1-140M-Instruct
2 Instruction tuning datasets
2 GGUFs

Much more coming soon:
Speck1.1-140M-Instruct that is post trained on SpeckChat2 will be coming very soon
New base model Speck1.5-140M is coming with a much higher quality corpus

Thanks to everyone who is already supporting the project, and stay tuned for new releases!

Public reports allege that Anthropic gobbled up trillions of tokens of copyrighted material and public data to build their castle. πŸ°πŸ“„ Now that they're sitting on top, they're begging for special laws to protect their profits while pulling the ladder up behind them. πŸͺœπŸš«

But the hypocrisy meter just broke! πŸ“‰ They are accusing Chinese labs like DeepSeek, Minimax, and Kimi of "huge distillation attacks. The Reality is that You can't just loot the entire internet's library, lock the door, and then sue everyone else for reading through the window. Stop trying to gatekeep the tech you didn't own in the first place. Read the complete article on it: https://huggingface.co/blog/Ujjwal-Tyagi/the-dark-underbelly-of-anthropic
