PrismML launched Bonsai 2 27B, a second-generation ultra-compact multimodal AI model designed to run on PCs and some high-end mobile devices. It reduces a Qwen3.8 27B model from about 56 GB in 16-bit uncompressed form to about 5.9 GB while retaining about 98.2% of capabilities. Model users can now run this AI locally with lower memory, compute, and power needs, with weights released under Apache 2.0.
