Reddit user seeks small, unquantized LLMs for data pipeline reasoning tasks

A user on the r/LocalLLaMA subreddit is seeking recommendations for small, unquantized language models suitable for a data pipeline. The primary goal is to process approximately 90 million texts with a hallucination rate below 10%, using Gemini Pro 3.1 as a teacher model. The user has a strong fine-tuning dataset but has found smaller multimodal models like Qwen3.5-2B to be ineffective for their specific reasoning and extraction tasks. AI
