https://huggingface.co/endless-frontier/BigBang-v1#introductionIntroduction
As Large Language Models (LLMs) approach human expert performance, their continued development is increasingly constrained by training tasks conceived within the limits of human knowledge. We argue that open-ended capability growth requires verifiable frontier tasks: problems at the boundary of current knowledge whose solutions can be objectively evaluated through formal methods, computation, simulation, or domain-specific tools. To this end, we introduce BigBang, a general-purpose LLM evolved from Qwen 3.6 35B-A3B through efficient post-training with an adversarial, self-evolving synthetic data framework. The framework contains two core components: (1) generator agents that continually propose and solve increasingly challenging scientific and technical problems, and (2) critic agents that evaluate correctness, difficulty, scalability, and diversity, while using held-out real research tasks to calibrate the evolving synthetic-data distribution. Through iterative generator–critic interaction, the framework constructs approximately 10,000 high-difficulty post-training examples across multiple domains. Despite the modest data scale, BigBang substantially outperforms its base model across scientific research, reasoning, coding, and tool-use benchmarks, achieving aggregate performance between DeepSeek V4 Flash (284B) and DeepSeek V4 Pro (1.6T). These results demonstrate that self-evolving synthesis of verifiable frontier tasks provides a promising path toward scalable and open-ended intelligence.

BigBang-V1 on eight representative benchmarks spanning long-horizon search, software engineering, scientific research, and AI research. BigBang-V1 obtains the highest reported score among the selected 35B models on all eight benchmarks. It even exceeds DeepSeek V4 Pro Preview (1.6T) on FrontierScience Research, Humanity’s Last Exam, PaperBench(Code-Dev) and BioMysteryBench-HD.

For streamlined integration, we recommend using BigBang-V1 via APIs. Below is a guide to use BigBang-V1 via OpenAI-compatible API.
https://huggingface.co/endless-frontier/BigBang-v1#serving-bigbang-v1Serving BigBang-V1
BigBang-V1 can be served via APIs with popular inference frameworks. In the following, we show example commands to launch OpenAI-Compatible API servers for BigBang-V1 models.
Inference efficiency and throughput vary significantly across frameworks. We recommend using the latest framework versions to ensure optimal performance and compatibility. For production workloads or high-throughput scenarios, dedicated serving engines such as SGLang, KTransformers or vLLM are strongly recommended.
The model has a default context length of 262,144 tokens. If you encounter out-of-memory (OOM) errors, consider reducing the context window. However, because BigBang-V1 leverages extended context for complex tasks, we advise maintaining a context length of at least 128K tokens to preserve thinking capabilities.

SGLangis a fast serving framework for large language models and vision language models.sglang\>=0\.5\.10is recommended for BigBang-V1, which can be installed using the following command in a fresh environment:
