NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 Super: a 120B open hybrid mixture-of-experts activating 12B parameters per token. The Mamba-Transformer backbone with multi-token prediction generates over 50% more tokens than comparable open models, and Latent MoE calls 4 experts for the cost of one. 1M context, NVIDIA Open License.
