Baidu has released ERNIE-5.5-Flash-Base, a 280 billion parameter mixture-of-experts foundation model with 14 billion active parameters, pre-trained on 33.5 trillion tokens.

Baidu released ERNIE-5.5-Flash-Base as an open-source foundation model. The mixture-of-experts architecture has 280 billion total parameters with 14 billion active per input and supports up to 1 million token context. It was pre-trained on 33.5 trillion tokens and is available in FP8 and BF16 formats on Hugging Face. Benchmarks show competitive performance with DeepSeek-V4-Flash-Base in reasoning, code, and long-context tasks. The base model is intended for further development and fine-tuning.
