Empero is an independent AI research lab. We build open weights, code and datasets: Qwythos-9B-Claude-Mythos-5-1M with GGUF v2 local builds, Abacus as our Rust terminal coding agent, Qwythos-27B announced as the next larger Mythos model, and Claire in pretraining as our in-house 6B-A500M mixture-of-experts.
