Pocket LLM Server Just Like a Pocket WiFi

3•itstomo•11h ago
Hey HN,

If there is a pocket-sized compact hardware that hosts large-size open-source LLMs that you can connect offline, wouldn't it be helpful?

The benefits:

- You can use large-size open-source LLMs without using up your PC or smartphone's compute

- You can protect your privacy

- You can use high performance LLM offline

I think it’s a very interesting approach. Could be for a niche group, likely power users of LLMs who are often mobile and value privacy.

Any thoughts on how small this hardware could eventually become?
