I'm guessing all the "censored" boxes are not actually censoring anything and are placed there to make you imagine something much worse.

Rust gives you statically linked binaries as well. So your argument boils down to having to add `reqwest = "0.13.3"` to your `Cargo.toml`.

I thought MTP wasn't very useful on MoE models because the expert overlap for 2 tokens was too small.

When running on a GPU, dense models are shaping up to be the best way due to two things: - Maximum intelligence per VRAM (you dont have much) - Dense models can benefit from MTP to get an almost 2x speedup in decode (ie, a 27b dense model w

It's not real. It's like naming your movement "The Good People". It sprouted from the "Rationalist" community, which is even more self-aggrandizing. Neither has any hope of doing any good for the world as they

But you won't see 2x expert re-use, the speedup with 5 streams will be tiny.

This is just wishful thinking. For prefill, it's really easy to batch MoE and get really good tk/s, even on a single stream. For decode, you will run into the problem that: 1) you need more parallel requests which means more memor

Even if you could fit a 500B model's expert weights in very fast system RAM, it would run so slow as to be useless.

There was only a very brief time it was selling for MSRP (last fall for $2000). Even if you use that as the previous data point, it's only 200% increased.

But you aren't trying out the model. You quantized beyond what people generally say is acceptable, and reduced the number of experts, which these models are not designed for. Even worse, the github repo advertises: > Pure C/Met

Yeah, I am mostly only talking about the SSD bottleneck being too slow. No way Apple gets 17GB/s sustained. SSDs thermally throttle really fast, and you have some random access involved when it needs the next expert.

I don't mean to be a jerk, but 2-bit quant, reducing experts from 10 to 4, who knows if the test is running long enough for the SSD to thermal throttle, and still only getting 5.5 tokens/s does not sound useful to me.

Streaming weights from RAM to GPU for prefill makes sense due to batching and pcie5 x16 is fast enough to make it worthwhile. Streaming weights from RAM to GPU for decode makes no sense at all because batching requires multiple parallel str
