If you were in Britain on Christmas Day in 1992, chances are you sat in front of the TV to watch an episode of one of the most-beloved series in the country, Only Fools and Horses. In that particular Christmas episode, protagonists Del Boy and Rodney come up with a plan to bottle and sell tap water under the “Peckham Spring” brand, named after a London district not far from where I live. The episode came to public attention again in 2004, when journalists discovered that Coca-Cola’s newly-laun

When it comes to actually storing the numerical weights that power an LLM's underlying neural network, most modern AI models rely on the precision of 16- or 32-bit floating point numbers. But that level of precision can come at the cost of large memory footprints (in the hundreds of gigabytes for the largest models) and significant processing resources needed for the complex matrix multiplication used when responding to prompts.
