Qwen4-27B's 4-way HC shift?
October 26, 2026

This design trades traditional FFN capacity for increased representation density by running four parallel streams through each layer. If implemented, this architectural shift aims to improve multi-step reasoning and consistency within a 27B parameter budget.
