[OpenRouter Launches Anonymous Model Elephant Alpha, Focused on Token Efficiency] In the late night of April 13 Beijing time, OpenRouter quietly launched the 100B-parameter anonymous model Elephant Alpha, emphasizing token efficiency rather than scalability. The model excels in code completion, debugging, and lightweight agent scenarios, marking a return to a 'pragmatic' approach. The community is actively discussing its true identity, with speculation pointing to domestic models such as Zhipu GLM-5.1-Air, MiniMax M2.8, Kimi, and DeepSeek Lite V4. Some opinions suggest it may be a product of a completely new laboratory, making it unlikely to be a domestic model. (Sci-Tech Innovation Board Daily)
