Hermes 4 70B

Hermes 4 70B mixes reasoning and direct-response data. Its post-training supports tool calls, JSON output and instructions that control response style.

Training and model behavior

The Hermes 4 corpus contains about five million examples and sixty billion tokens. The model can place deliberation inside think tags. Its chat template can enable reasoning and preserve earlier reasoning segments. Tool calls use explicit tags for parsing.Hermes 4 70B model card

Working with this model

Practical guidance. Keep reasoning settings and chat formatting fixed when comparing this release with its base. Check tool names and arguments before execution. Higher willingness to answer is a behavior choice, not a correctness measure.
