It's what happens when you don't do market research.

#14There are already a handful of repos doing essentially exactly this: `mlx-moe-offload`, `streamlx`, `mlx-moe`, `mlx-flash`, and `deepseek-v4-flash-mlx` - i.e. keep the resident parts of an MoE in unified memory and page/stream routed experts from SSD on Apple Silicon. At this point I'd much rather see people collaborate on one of these implementations, benchmark against them, or upstream the useful bits into MLX/MLX-…

I genuinely want to contribute. And hey! I was doing oss this since 2014 so waay before AI was cool.

#18It seems we could use a new kind of memory that streams the weight data in, like GDDR in reverse.
