Agnes AI's (Sapiens AI, Singapore) first open-weight release: a 33B-parameter hybrid-attention model (54 gated delta-rule recurrent layers alternating with 18 global-attention layers, 3:1) under Apache 2.0, with a 262K-token context window and text/image/video input. This open-weight Preview checkpoint is distinct from Agnes AI's production "Agnes 3.0 Flash" API model, which runs a different checkpoint and is not open-weight; the two should not be conflated.
