Why the edge:
- Documentation and upkeep, OTel-2.0-LLM-31B-IT +30: OTel-2.0-LLM-31B-IT 74 (Model card 14, Intended use, a long limitations section, the architecture and training method, the parameters (31B) and the language (English) are on the card.); SenseNova-Loop-9B-Preview 44 (Model card 14, Intended use, the architecture, the parameter counts, the training context and the languages (in the metadata) are on the card.)
- Reach, OTel-2.0-LLM-31B-IT +10: OTel-2.0-LLM-31B-IT 50 (Memory 10, the publisher's only build is the BF16 safetensors, 62.55 GB for the 15 shards the index names, and 62.55 GB × 1.2 = 75.1 GB, above 64 GB and inside…); SenseNova-Loop-9B-Preview 40 (Memory 15, the only build is the safetensors set, 38.14 GB with its MTP head, since the Hub counts 9.41B of its parameters in F32. Runtimes 0, none of the six r…)
- Risk, OTel-2.0-LLM-31B-IT +5: OTel-2.0-LLM-31B-IT 55 (File safety 25, safetensors only, with no .bin, .pt or .pth files and no Python files.); SenseNova-Loop-9B-Preview 50 (File safety 15, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files (25).)
