Edge0 releases 145B open-source model for laptops

Edge0 has released Edge0-145B, a 145-billion-parameter sparse mixture-of-experts model designed to run on high-memory laptops. The model requires approximately 29GB of peak memory, with a significant portion of its parameters not active during inference. Edge0 claims performance competitive with cloud-based models on various benchmarks, though these results are from internal testing and have not yet been independently verified. The model is available under an open-source license, allowing for research and commercial use of its outputs. AI

IMPACT This release pushes the boundaries of on-device AI, potentially enabling more powerful local applications and reducing reliance on cloud infrastructure.
