    The problem is dram bandwidth to the cpu. Each token costs roughly 20gb of traffic and ddr5 is roughly 50-80gb/s, plus you still have to run the compute sequentially. That’s your l…

    Why quantize to int8 when k3 is int4? I could be wrong, but that’s what I remember seeing.

    And to clarify -- it only applies to models, not arbitrary data. So its useful to exactly zero other fields.

    I honestly don't know... I didn't train the models, so I can't tell why the math works out that way. It just does. I suspect it has to do with the fact that all the small models I'…

    We're not an AI company ... nor do we have any reason to use it. Just a fun idea that was fruitful.

    704gb -> 564gb; 358 gb -> 270 gb; 28.79 gb -> 7.65 gb; 439 gb -> 93 gb It depends on the total entropy of the model. Smaller models have less entropy.

    We have a lossless compression codec (working on open sourcing it over the next couple of weeks) that reduces it down to its minimum entropy -- it cannot be compressed further. On …

    They are indeed quite challenging. We literally wrote a paper about it ( https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.09114 ) ... you almost describe some of our original architecture too! You might…

    I’d also recommend looking at Swytch (docs.getswytch.com, particularly the economics page). Disclosure: I’m a founder.

    It’s funny because it’s just (relativistic) math. It would cost a couple hundred bucks to roll your own with no restrictions.

    Let me put it bluntly. I’m agreeing with you but saying that isn’t what I was talking about and trying to give examples. You’re also agreeing with me. The “idea” of table tennis an…
