AI startup Recursive has released Flint, a free open-source coding model that runs on a laptop and was largely built by its own research system, the Eureka Machine. The 40B-parameter mixture-of-experts model activates just 2.5B parameters at a time, reaching about 131 tokens per second on an M4 Pro MacBook. https://techcrunch.com/2026/10/21/recursive-launches-flint-a-laptop-coding-model-it-says-was-largely-built-by-ai/ #Tech #Startup #News #AI
