# 🐉 Qwen3 1.7B – Optimized for FastFlowLM on AMD Ryzen™ AI NPU (XDNA2 Only)

## Model Summary
This model is derived from **Qwen3 1.7B Instruct** by Alibaba Cloud. While based on the 1.5B series, this variant has been optimized with quantization and runtime tuning specifically for AMD Ryzen™ AI NPUs using the FastFlowLM runtime.

> ✅ **This model is released under the permissive MIT License.**
