The teacher and student are different sizes

The card names Hugging Face's SmolLM corpus as training data and identifies English as the release language. This is a Sakana-trained derivative, not an unchanged Qwen mirror.TAID-LLM-1.5B official model card

Working with this release

Practical guidance. Use English task examples when reproducing the documented scope. Compare the adapted student with its original Qwen checkpoint before attributing a benefit to distillation.
