webAI (@thewebAI) just open-sourced TwIL-8B, an 8.8B model built on IBM’s Granite 4.2 8B and trained for math, coding and following instructions. > TwIL-8B fits in a 4.98 GiB quantized file that runs on a CPU or modest graphics card, putting near-frontier coding and math on hardware people already own. > scores 81.6% on LiveCodeBench, 16.0 points above Qwen3.5-9B and ahead of Google’s Gemma 4 31B, a model 3.5x its size. > Against GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.8 and Grok 4.3, TwIL-8B reaches 93% of the best frontier score on coding and 92% on instruction following, beating Claude Opus 4.8 on IFBenc
