The race for LLM “cognitive core” – a few billion param model that maximally sacrifices encyclopedic knowledge for capability. It lives always-on and by default on every computer as the kernel of LLM personal computing.
Its features are slowly crystalizing:
– Natively multimodal text/vision/audio at both input and output.
– Matryoshka-style architecture allowing a dial of capability up and down at test time.
– Reasoning, also with a dial. (system 2)
– Aggressively tool-using.
– On-device finetuning LoRA slots for test-time training, personalization and customization.
– Delegates and double checks just the right parts with the oracles in the cloud if internet is available.
It doesn’t know that William the Conqueror’s reign ended in September 9 1087, but it vaguely recognizes the name and can look up the date. It can’t recite the SHA-256 of empty string as e3b0c442…, but it can calculate it quickly should you really want it.
What LLM personal computing lacks in broad world knowledge and top tier problem-solving capability it will make up in super low interaction latency (especially as multimodal matures), direct / private access to data and state, offline continuity, sovereignty (“not your weights not your brain”). i.e. many of the same reasons we like, use and buy personal computers instead of having thin clients access a cloud via remote desktop or so.https://x.com/karpathy/status/1938626382248149433
In my opinion, Meta has been the most impactful big tech company in AI thanks to the open release of Llama that changed the field and helped them catch up to the frontier in record times!

We don’t have AI self-improves yet, and when we do it will be a game-changer.
