I'd be interested to hear some use cases people have for large contexts on an 8B model. Other than sentiment analysis or summarization (this release implies agentic use). My experience with the general intelligence of agentic interactions is that everything is unusable before 32B for any context greater than 4k tokens.

I personally use a 8B model for general use on my laptop lol, it works like a charm and makes sense (most of the time atleast)
