I wrote about the new GLM-4.5 model family yesterday—new open weight (MIT licensed) models from Z.ai in China which their benchmarks claim score highly in coding even against models such …
The new Ryzen AI chips and Apples Neural Engine (or whatever is called) have great efficiency for performance and can run strong local models.
Intel also announced they’re going this route.
I know soldered memory isn’t popular, but right now the performance/energy benefits are big — you just have to buy the premium models.
I think NVIDIA will keep doing their massive GPU toaster ovens, Project Digits was supposed to be their low energy competitor and has been underwhelming.
