DeepX claims inference up to 100B parameters at less than 5 W

DeepX achieves sub-5W inference for 100B-parameter models.

“HN: 91 pts”

Why it matters

Ultra-low-power inference at 100B parameters changes deployment calculus for edge AI and battery-constrained devices. Hardware teams must evaluate whether custom silicon or optimization techniques can match claimed efficiency, as this affects viability of on-device AI applications.
