    Kimi K3 runs on 8GB RAM

    @nate_512WAIT... YOU CAN NOW RUN A TWO POINT SEVEN TRILLION PARAMETER MODEL ON AN 8GB LAPTOP 🤯 The Kimi K3 engine achieves this with a 176KB binary written in portable C. It bypasses memory limits by streaming the 1.56TB weights directly from disk for every single token. → 8GB RAM gets you 26 seconds per token → 128GB RAM gets you 5 seconds per token Same exact math and byte identical results regardless of the machine. Zero GPUs required. This is pure brutalist engineering. Free and open-source. repo in 🧵↓

    About this photo

    The image is a screenshot of a GitHub repository page. The focus is on a technical description of a large language model called "kimi-k3-in-c". The page details its parameters, memory usage, and a diagram illustrating its architecture. The mood is informative and technical, presented in a clean, code-repository style. A notable visual element is a cartoon of Spongebob Squarepants in the corner, looking surprised or overwhelmed, which adds a touch of humor to the otherwise technical content. The on-screen text includes "github.com", "README", "Contributing", "Apache-2.0 license", "More", "kimi-k3-in-c", "A 2.78-trillion-parameter model. One CPU. 8 GB of RAM.", "Kimi K3 inference in portable C99. No BLAS. No framework. No GPU.", "CI passing", "license", "Apache-2.0", "C99", "portable", "platform", "Linux x86-64", "
