A r/LocalLLaMA poster asks whether any experimental models of 9B parameters or fewer are trained with engram/n-gram methods, saying none are visible on Hugging Face. They propose comparing a tiny model trained with and without n-grams on the same dataset.

AI computing networks maker Ligent Technologies is seeking up to HK$5.7 billion ($727 million) in a Hong Kong initial public offering. The listing adds to a surge of AI-related IPOs this year.

A community-built MiniMax Director workflow for ComfyUI animates multiple reference images together while supporting text-to-video, image-to-video, and custom audio/voice. It was designed for low-VRAM users, generating video at reduced resolution to fit within 6GB of VRAM.

An r/ChatGPT thread argues the biggest benefit of ChatGPT is getting past the blank page for coding, writing, learning, and planning rather than producing complete answers. The poster asks whether others use it mainly as a "get me started" tool.
