Step 3.5 Flash is a cutting-edge, open-source large language model developed by StepFun-AI that pushes the frontier of efficient reasoning and “agentic” intelligence in a way that makes powerful AI accessible beyond proprietary black boxes. Unlike dense models that activate all their parameters for every token, Step 3.5 Flash uses a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture that selectively engages only about 11 billion of its roughly 196 billion total parameters per token, delivering high-quality reasoning and interaction at far lower compute cost and latency than traditional large models. ...

Strata is an open-source local inference system for running Qwen3.8-Flash-Next on consumer Windows and Linux PCs. It is designed to make a very large mixture-of-experts model practical with one NVIDIA GPU, system RAM, and local storage instead of server-class hardware. Frequently used experts remain on the GPU while other model components are shared across RAM, CPU, and SSD resources. Speculative decoding uses a smaller helper component to propose tokens that the main model verifies in batches. ...
