You're Not Paying for Compute. You're Paying for Memory Bandwidth
TL;DR— Inference cost conversations obsess over FLOPs and token prices, but the real constraint on LLM serving is memory bandwidth— specifically the c…

Вы запустили LLM-инференс в продакшене. Поток запросов не менялся, нагрузка та же, что вчера, — а Time to First Token внезапно вырос в три раза…
It's early, but the plan is to reduce dependency on Nvidia and Huawei.
Diffusion text models — which draft an entire block of text at once and then iteratively refine it, rather than generating one token at a time left to…
Every LLM inference engineer hits this wall eventually. You deployed a model, it works in testing, then production traffic arrives. Suddenly your 80GB…
One of the hottest topics in LLM inference acceleration right now is Speculative Decoding . DSpark claims 60%–85% single-user speedup at the same thro…
Messy text is everywhere: support tickets, lead forms, emails, contracts, incident reports, call notes, Slack messages. The annoying part is that the …
GPU programming usually asks Rust developers to surrender the borrow checker at the launch boundary: references collapse into raw pointers, and aliasi…
The silicon race is heating up amid the struggle to keep up with demand.
Over the past few months, I had the opportunity to contribute to llama.cpp’s WebGPU backend, helping push it from isolated operator support toward a m…
If you call an open-weight model behind an API, whether that is your own box, a hosted endpoint, or a router, you are trusting that the thing answerin…
We’ve treated local AI deployments as experimental toys for too long. The moment a homelab becomes a dependency for work, the security posture must sh…
Speculative decoding: when and why it actually speeds up inference Your chat endpoint serves 200 requests per second. The model is a 70B Llama 3 fine-…
Crescent Island is an air-cooled chip that uses LPDDR5 memory.
Один из самых популярных способов снизить процент галлюцинаций языковых моделей — метод RAG, то есть схема, в которой модель при необходимости обращае…

С ростом сложности рабочих нагрузок инференса больших языковых моделей (LLM) единый монолитный процесс обслуживания упирается в свои пределы. У префил…
TL;DR. Мы выкатили открытый бенчмарк MELT-1 — он меряет не сколько модель знает в идеальных условиях (MMLU & co), а сколько она проживёт под дрифт…
