Recursive launches Flint language model driven by Eureka Machine AI
Current overview (not historical)
Recursive has released Flint, a language model developed by its Eureka Machine AI system. Flint is a Mixture-of-Experts model with 40 billion total parameters, activating 2.5 billion parameters per token, and is designed for agent coding on local hardware. This marks the first output of Recursive's AI-driven research process.

Report first recorded Oct 22, 23:07
AI startup Recursive has released Flint, its first language model, which was developed using an AI system called "Eureka Machine" that autonomously proposed, ran, and evaluated experiments. Flint is a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with 40 billion total parameters but only 2.5 billion active parameters per token, designed for agentic coding on local hardware. Recursive claims Flint leads coding benchmarks like SWE-Bench Pro v2 and Terminal-Bench 2.1 among MoE models with fewer than 50 billion parameters, matching the benchmark scores of much slower dense models in the 27 to 31 billion parameter range on an M4 Pro with 48 GB of memory. On a MacBook Pro with M4 Pro, it generates over 125 tokens per second at short contexts, and over 150 on an Nvidia RTX Spark with 64 GB of memory.
