Built on Qwen3.5 and DeepSeek bases, they run from 35B to 1.6 trillion parameters. Here's what each one is, where its numbers come from, and why exactly one of the six will load on a card you can buy.

They are worth a closer look than the usual launch-week entry, because the lab behind them is doing something structurally different from most of the names in that catalogue — and because exactly one of the six will ever load on a card you can buy. Here is what they are, where the numbers come from, and what it actually takes to hold each one. Not a startup in the usual sense. Nex-AGI describes itself as "an innovation alliance initiated by the Shanghai Innovation Institute" — a consortium rather than a company, publishing from `nex.sii…
