Qwen3 Extreme - Increased Experts in Qwen3 MoE - Install and Test Locally
AI Summary
In this video, Fahd Mirza demonstrates the installation and testing of the Qwen3-30B-A6B-16-Extreme model, which is a fine-tuned version of the Qwen model. The extreme version utilizes a mixture of experts model, increasing the number of active experts from 8 to 16 out of 128, resulting in a higher parameter capacity of 6 billion compared to the original 3 billion. While this enhancement improves the model’s ability to handle complex tasks, it also slows down token generation speed, making it better suited for in-depth applications rather than general use. The video explores the implications of using this model, its performance in reasoning tasks, and its overall quality compared to the original Qwen3 model. The author discusses the requirements for running the model, including the recommended use of high-VRAM GPUs and a lightweight inference engine called VLM.
