By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new open-source project called Janas enables running large language models (LLMs) that exceed a computer's available RAM by efficiently streaming model layers from a Solid State Drive (SSD). This technique allows for the execution of significantly larger models than previously possible on consumer hardware. The project's code is available on GitHub. AI

IMPACT Enables running larger LLMs on consumer hardware by optimizing memory management through SSD streaming.
