NVIDIA AI Dev announced two open model releases in one day: Nemotron 3.5 Bolt 74B-A9B, an MoE with 9B active parameters suited to mid-sized machines, and Nemotron 3.5 Bolt E4B, small enough for mobile devices. Being from NVIDIA, the 74B is expected to be optimized for DGX Spark/GB10 with day-zero NVFP4 support. Observers note competition from larger locally-run Qwen 3.8-flash-next via Strata, but are still keen to try NVIDIA's official release.
