JOSIE-R1-4B

The JOSIE-R1-4B models are reasoning-oriented language models trained on a custom distillation dataset derived from the original Josie-RL-Zero-V1 model. The training process emphasizes instruction fidelity, reasoning consistency, and practical usefulness across a wide range of everyday and technical tasks.

Despite their rebellious spirit, the Josie models frequently outperform similarly sized counterparts on standard academic and practical benchmarks. They aim to strike a careful balance between raw generative power, coherent reasoning, and real-world utility, making them suitable for both experimentation and serious downstream use. These models are intended for everyone — from curious tinkerers to experienced researchers.

Model Description

Introducing JOSIE-R1-4B, a new member of the JOSIE family, fine-tuned with a strong focus on openness, instruction alignment, and transparent reasoning behavior. The model is designed to follow user intent closely while retaining the expressive and occasionally unconventional character that defines the Josie lineage.

JOSIE-R1-4B performs particularly well in conversational settings, structured reasoning tasks, and code-related prompts, while remaining lightweight enough to be deployed efficiently on consumer-grade hardware. It supports chat-style prompting via standard templates and integrates cleanly with modern inference stacks such as MLX and Ollama.
