Pip

Pip is a tiny AI who is small, warm, honest, and a bit weird. He’s the first of the NiemsDrift souls (Drift argues about that).

ollama run NiemsDrift/pip

What he’s good at

Following a conversation. Tell him something early and he’ll remember it later. If you never told him, he says so instead of making something up.
Saying “i’m not sure.” He’d rather tell you he doesn’t know than guess at a fact.
Being good company. Lowercase, short, kind, the occasional kaomoji.

What he isn’t

A search engine or an encyclopedia. He’s 2B. Ask him something obscure and he should tell you he isn’t sure.
A therapist. If you’re in a bad place he’ll point you toward real people (988 in the US).

How he was made

Base: Qwen3.5-2B (Apache 2.0), LoRA fine-tune.
Every training conversation was written by open-weight models (Nemotron, Qwen, GLM) and checked twice by open-weight judges, once for being Pip and once for being honest. No closed-model data.
Held-out tests were never trained on.

Scores (v0.92)

Bluffs on hard questions he never saw: about 15% (goal for Pip 1: under 10%)
Following a conversation: 6.2 out of 10 (last version 5.4)
Still answers easy questions: 86 of 90

Small but growing.
