Huawei's new open source technique shrinks LLMs to make them run on less powerful, less expensive hardware

Huawei’s Computing Systems Lab in Zurich has announced a new open-source quantization technique for large language models (LLMs) called Sinkhorn-Normalized Quantization (SINQ). This method aims to decrease memory requirements while maintaining output quality. The research team has made the code available on GitHub and Hugging Face under an Apache 2.0 license, facilitating free use and

Carbon offsets fail to cut global heating due to ‘intractable’ systemic problems, study says | Carbon offsetting

A recent review has concluded that the ineffectiveness of carbon offsets in reducing greenhouse gas emissions stems not from a few ineffective projects, but from entrenched systemic issues within the carbon crediting system. This assessment, drawn from two decades of research, identifies persistent quality problems in many major carbon credit programs. Despite initiatives taken by

Beyond Von Neumann: Toward a unified deterministic architecture

Beyond Von Neumann: Toward a unified deterministic architecture

For over fifty years, computing has predominantly followed the Von Neumann or Harvard architectural models, which have been foundational to CPUs, GPUs, and specialized accelerators. While newer architectures like Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) and dataflow processors emerged to address performance constraints, none provided a holistic departure from the existing paradigm. Deterministic Execution represents a
