alt Hacker NewsAt 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.
Taalas actually already support LoRA, basically doing exactly what you say.
The other thing that I think is really interesting about all of this, is that LLMs are already perforce behind the times with their knowledge cutoff, so adding an additional ~3 months for bake into silicon isn't such a huge deal, I think, for the ~10x more efficient and faster you get.
