There is some research suggesting that a prefix from a stronger model will tend to elicit better completions from a smaller one. I am doing some experiments to see if I can replicate this in a practically useful way, e.g. Fable + 4B Qwen, or 125B Qwen Flash Next + 4B Qwen, results TBD.

I don't think that follows from the published results. Would have been an interesting hypothesis to add though, and quite easy. Just throw the same setup at some benchmarks.
