Kolibri has landed: a sovereign open-weight model

Aleph Alpha shipped Kolibri on October 3: 78.1B total parameters, but only 3.46B active per token, Apache 2.0, weights on Hugging Face. Trained on 20T tokens (21.3% German) across 768 B200s in 21 days, on infrastructure in Germany and Finland. The sovereignty angle gets the headlines, but the number I care about is HumanEval+ 92.7 from a model that activates under 4B params per token.
