gemma-4-12B-TNG-V8

SkullOfStars

This is a Nightmedia release, trained with locally generated content.

This training includes TNG-infused coding lessons.

The teacher model used was the qx86-hi quant of the nightmedia/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Holo3-Qwopus-bf16

The lessons are exclusively in backend engineering, LLM design and training, operational Holodeck in Haskell, Rust, Golang and Python.

The set up was in the DS9 Holodeck, with in-person commentary by Spock, Data, Quark, Worf, Odo, Julian, Garak, Q, and many others.

Additionally, some of the Polaris Alpha questions were used to distill from the teacher model.
