emmanuelvivier · x · 2026-10-25
Hugging Face released Carbon-X as an open model: a 14.8B-parameter DNA-understanding model that lets users "converse" with genomic data, answering questions about mutations in natural language. Built on a modified Qwen3 chat template with SFT training support, weights are openly available on Hugging Face — a notable AI-for-Science open-source move in genomics.
