QUEST‑35B: Open‑source Deep Research Agent Trained on 32 H100s
Ohio State’s NLP group released QUEST‑35B, a 35‑billion‑parameter deep‑research agent trained on 32 H100 GPUs with ~8K synthetic tasks. They open‑sourced the model weights, training scripts, data pipeline and benchmarks, letting anyone reproduce frontier research‑agent performance. This lowers the barrier to building citation‑grounded, fact‑seeking agents.
