Read the article →What fine-tuning a language model is, how Unsloth AI came about, what makes it different from Axolotl, TRL and LLaMA-Factory, and when it is worth using. With the numbers on VRAM and speed, the founders’ story, and a practical example.
Read the article →Complete guide to adding OpenRouter and other providers to the Hermes Agent model picker on WSL2: interactive configuration, custom endpoints, provider routing and custom aliases.
Read the article →OpenRouter's Stealth programme is a stage on which AI giants test anonymous models before launch. We find out who is hiding behind names like Space Bunny Alpha and Ox Alpha, and how to use them in Hermes Agent.
Read the article →The Hermes agent, run on WSL2, lets you manage several model providers through a flexible configuration. To use a model available on OpenRouter, you therefore need to explicitly specify OpenRouter as the provider when configuring Hermes.
Read the article →Nous Research and OpenRouter are two key players in the world of open source AI and decentralisation, but with totally different roles: the former focuses on research and fine-tuning of advanced models, while the latter is an aggregator that brings together hundreds of models through a single compatible API.
