FP8 quantization

Alibaba's Qwen team has released FP8-quantized weights for Qwen3.8-27B, a 27-billion-parameter dense vision-language model with native 262,144-token context extensible to 1 million tokens. The model claims gains over its Qwen3.6 and Qwen3.7 predecessors on coding, agentic, and multimodal benchmarks.

Alibaba has released Qwen3.6-27B, a 27-billion parameter language model with a native 262,144 token context window (extensible to 1,010,000 tokens). The model achieves 53.5% on SWE-bench Pro and 77.2% on SWE-bench Verified, with FP8 quantization providing near-identical performance to the full-precision version.
