- What happened
- Fastino released GLiDE, a family of five decision models ranging from 0.4B to 27B parameters optimized for classification and routing tasks.
- Why it matters
- Engineers building production systems that need fast, predictable classification, ticket routing, policy decisions, or content moderation with structured outputs.
- Watch out
- Full benchmark scores are estimates pending official publication. Performance gains from recurrent depth diminish below 2B parameters. Scores vary significantly between public and hidden test sets.
The patterns behind this
Each one covers how the technique works, when it earns its cost, and where it breaks.
