V4-Pro reasoning quality is remarkable — mobile implications
The reasoning chain quality in V4-Pro is impressive. We're studying how to distill this reasoning ability into mobile-sized models.
The key insight: it's not about copying the model, it's about teaching small models HOW to reason. Step-by-step thinking can be distilled into 1.5B parameters if the training data captures the reasoning process.
Our experiments at dispatchAI show promising results — a 1.5B model trained on distilled reasoning traces from larger models shows 60% of the reasoning quality at 1/400th the size.
