Its weights were never published, so it can only be reached through its provider. No graphics card changes that.

Answers

Yan — common questions

01

What GPU do I need to run Yan?

None. Yan is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.

02

Is Yan open source?

No. Yan has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.

03

How many parameters does Yan have?

No parameter count has been published for Yan, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.

04

Who created Yan?

Yan was published by Rock AI / Shanghai Stonehill Technology, based in China, categorised as industry.

05

When was Yan released?

Yan was published in January 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

06

What is Yan used for?

Yan works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling/generation. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.
