alt Hacker NewsThe magic is in the fact that they essentially have an ASIC llm device. There is no other trickery. The problem they will face is that it is actually locked in silicon, so upgrading models will be difficult, and likely require new hardware each time.

At some point I imagine you’d add a software layer on top that holds more current training and can be called as needed trading off for slower responses. There’s already work out there splitting models across networks. You could have the base on silicon, some stuff in memory on the machine, and another frontier tool in the cloud.

Is the size of the ASIC limiting factor or can they infinitely tensor parallelize? If thats possible then it would make it only a matter of economy of scale, there are good enough models already for people to invest in that kind of platform
