+Over the last few weeks, we've been working on improving Jan's stability. Every update helps us make Jan's experience faster and smoother. 
+With version 0.5.4, you’ll notice AI running quicker on CPU - better performance all around.
+
+### Model Downloads
+You can now download models directly from the model selector in Threads. No more jumping between different tabs – just pick, download, and get started.
+
+### Fast CPU Inference 
+We've addressed the slower inference speeds on CPU, so you'll notice faster processing times, especially when using larger models.
+
+### Model Starts
+We tackled the notorious "model can't start / The specified module could not be found" error. 
+Plus, Phi-3 models are now working smoothly even if you're using an outdated version.
+
+### Consistent Warnings
+Performance warnings are now aligned between Model Hub and Threads, giving you more reliable insights no matter where you're working.
+
+### Persistent Thread Settings
+Switching between threads used to reset your instruction settings. That’s fixed now! Your settings will stay intact as you jump between old and new threads.
+
+### Minor UI Tweaks & Bug Fixes
+We’ve also resolved issues with the input slider on the right panel and tackled several smaller bugs to keep everything running smoothly.
+
