Qwen3-14B-MLX-8bit is an 8-bit quantized version of Qwen3-14B optimized for the MLX framework. Qwen3 is the latest generation of large language models in the Qwen series, offering a comprehensive suite of dense and mixture-of-experts models built with extensive training to deliver advancements in reasoning, instruction-following, agent capabilities, and multilingual support. A key distinguishing feature of Qwen3 is its unique ability to seamlessly switch between thinking mode for complex logical reasoning, mathematics, and coding, and non-thinking mode for efficient general-purpose dialogue, all within a single model. The model significantly enhances reasoning capabilities, surpassing previous QwQ and Qwen2.5 instruct models on mathematics, code generation, and commonsense logical reasoning. It also excels in human preference alignment for creative writing, role-playing, multi-turn dialogues, and instruction following. The model supports over 100 languages and dialects with strong multilingual instruction-following and translation capabilities, and demonstrates expertise in agent capabilities for precise integration with external tools. Qwen3-14B has 14.8 billion parameters with 40 layers and natively supports a context length of 32,768 tokens, extendable to 131,072 tokens using YaRN scaling techniques.
