NVIDIA released Nemotron 3.5 Bolt E4B 4GB on the redesigned Jetson AI Lab 2.0: a compact conversational model (8B total / 4B effective parameters) aimed at local assistants, multi-turn tool use, and interactive characters. It has a 64K context, OpenMDW-1.1 license, and ships as Q4KM GGUF, runnable via llama.cpp across the Jetson lineup from Orin Nano 8GB up to AGX Thor 128GB, with OpenAI-compatible serve/client commands provided. The poster, awaiting a Reachy mini robot, plans to buy a Jetson Orin Nano 8GB to run it — a low-cost combo of small robots with on-device models.
