#RWKV is One Dev's Journey to Dethrone Transformers
The largest RNN ever (up to 14B). Parallelizable. Fast inference & training. Quantizable. Low vram usage.
3+ years of hard work
wiki.rwkv.com
Created by @BlinkDL_AI
Computation sponsored by @StabilityAI @AiEleuther
Announcing a flock of RWKV models all arriving with apache2 licensing: available today
First up, the strongest and largest linear model to date: QRWKV6-32B-Instruct-Preview
Surpassing previous state space & RWKV models matching transformer performance with much lower inference
Overall we are excited by the progress we look forward to
- the step jump in RWKV7-based attention
- and the upcoming converted 70B models
Once properly tuned, and trained, it will serve as a full drop-in replacement for the vast majority of AI workloads today 🪿
Wrapping up: #RWKV was created by @BlinkDL_AI
as a project at @AIEleuther
- and is now being hosted by @LFAIDataFdn

🚀 RWKV.cpp AI system - is being deployed to 0.5 billion installs globally
Making it one of the world's most deployed, truly open-source (apache2) AI solutions out there
As it ships with every Windows 11 system today!!
Our group's code install count, went from ~100k -> 0.5B
RWKV.cpp - is now being deployed to half a billion systems worldwide
Making it one of the world's most widely deployed, truly open-source (apache2) AI solutions out there
As it now ships with every Windows 11 system
Energy cost - Is critical for a device that aims for long battery life!
Variety of language support - is critical for shipping a product to the whole world (beyond English or Chinese)
We will eagerly keep watch on this development

The RWKV v6 Finch lines of models are here
Scaling from 1.6B all the way to 14B
Pushing the boundary for an Attention-free transformer, and Multi-lingual models.
Cleanly licensedm Apache 2, under
@linuxfoundation
Find out more from the writeup here: blog.rwkv.com/p/rwkv-v6-finc…
As previously covered, this model is an upcycled model from our v5 - with an additional 1.4T tokens trained, for the conversion process.

Is AI's insatiable appetite for compute holding back innovation?
I recently talked with Eugene Cheah about @RWKV_AI. Eugene and the open-source RWKV community are working to democratize AI by addressing some of the key limitations of transformers.
The conclusive EagleX is here
Based on the RWKV-v5 architecture, bringing into opensource 7B space, the best SOTA
- Multi-lingual model
- English perplexity model
- Attention-free transformer today
(10-100x+ lower inference)
With comparable English performance to Mistral
