657 MB Thinking Model: Fine-tuning MiniCPM on Claude Fable 5 Traces
OpenAI
A developer fine-tuned the OpenBMB MiniCPM5-1B model on reasoning traces from Claude Fable 5, creating a compact 657 MB local thinking model capable of solving complex tasks, including mathematical and logical problems.
An unknown developer (or team) took the open-source MiniCPM5-1B model from OpenBMB and fine-tuned it on reasoning traces from the Claude Fable 5 model. The result is a local reasoning model that is only 657 MB in size. The model is capable of performing reasoning on complex tasks, including mathematical and logical ones, demonstrating capabilities similar to much larger language models. This work shows that powerful reasoning abilities can be compressed into very compact models suitable for local deployment on resource-constrained devices.
