Samsung open-sourced a method that shrinks 13B parameter LLM into less than 1 GB.
It's called "LittleBit"
Instead of storing AI weights as standard numbers, they used latent factorization to crush them down to extreme sub-1-bit levels.
In some configurations, they hit 0.1 bits per weight.
But here is where the architecture gets crazy.
When you compress an AI this much, you can stop doing math.
Instead of forcing the hardware to do heavy floating-point multiplication, LittleBit replaces the core computation with a bitwise XOR operation.
It swaps complex matrix math for basic sign flips.
The results rewrite the rules of model deployment:
• Unlocks a massive 11.6x inference speedup relative to standard FP16 models.
• Radically reduces memory footprint and loading bandwidth.
• Maintains robustness in extreme sub-0.5 bit regimes where previous compression methods catastrophically fail.
This is not a clever optimization.
It is the blueprint for running massive, state-of-the-art AI locally on cheap, resource-constrained devices.

I’ve published the SWEET interface.
One signal wire, full-duplex bi-dir transfer, no configured baud rate, fully self-timed.
I’ve put the foundation document, schematics and simulation files on GitHub for anyone who wants to examine, criticise or build it.

I hate commuting. That's why I made a site that shows UK job vacancies on a map. It is absolutely free for jobseekers and business to use.

Konstantin Chaykin's Levitas is just one of the models of a long tradition of "magic watches", using a brilliant mechanical solution with sapphire disks.
