Big news for AI on a budget. GLM 5.2 Colibri int4 is a Mixture of Experts model that runs entirely on your CPU. No GPU needed. It's fast, efficient, and opens up advanced language capabilities to anyone with a standard computer. This is a game changer for offline AI.





744B parameters. On a laptop. With 25GB RAM. Colibri runs GLM-5.2 (744B MoE) in pure C with zero dependencies. The trick: only ~40B params activate per token, so it keeps the dense part resident and streams experts from disk on demand. A single 2,400-line C file. No GPU, no BLAS, no Python at runtime. This shouldn't work. But it does. ⭐ 2.1K #AI #OpenSource github.com/JustVugg/colib… Follow for daily dev finds 🔔
