Mirendil Releases Fern, Its First Model Pretrained from Scratch, Supporting 10M Token Context

English text is being prepared.

AI summary

Mirendil released Fern, its first model pretrained from scratch, with a context of up to 10M tokens, equivalent to roughly 500,000 lines of code (Megatron-LM scale) or several days of an agent's work trajectory. The first version, Fern 0.1, underwent only a short round of post-training; its architecture, training, and serving were all designed for a 10M context, and next-token metrics continue to improve as context length grows. It targets high-throughput work such as auditing data, reading training logs, and reading through agent trajectories, and lists six scenarios including work on larger repositories, agentic coding, AI research code, and long-log debugging.

Why read this

AI score 60

The original text provides the specific capacity conversion for the 10M token context and six high-throughput scenarios, making it easier to judge the applicable boundaries of ultra-long-context models.

Introducing Fern, Mirendil’s first model: pretrained from scratch, with up to 10M tokens of context! That’s ~0.5M lines of code (roughly Megatron-LM scale) or days of an agent’s work, all in context at once. Its first version, Fern 0.1, had a short round of post-training 🚢 https://t.co/ClnV1Z3yzN

Mirendil 发布首个从零预训练的模型 Fern:把 10M token 当成另一种「算力」,服务「做 AI 的人」 @mirendil https://t.co/8Jwai8sGDu

10M Token 能做什么:~ 23 MB 代码 / ~50 万行,Megatron-LM 量级,或「几天 agent 干活」的轨迹一次塞进上下文。0.1 版只做了短轮 post-training;Mirendil 叙事是「参数与上下文是两条花算力的路」,架构 / 训练 / serving 都按 10M 设计;next-token 指标随上下文变长仍改善,并称预测质量可一路用到 10M。面向审计数据、读训练日志、通读 agent 轨迹这类高吞吐工作;0.1 只做了短轮 post-training。

六个使用场景 · 更大仓库上的工作 · agentic coding(跑命令、读输出、直到测试过) · AI 研究代码(训练循环、数据管线、评测) · 从长日志/堆栈 debug · 通读整段 agent/训练轨迹并解释因果 · 扫描整块预训练 shard 查重复、榜单污染与垃圾数据
