    What is 8 dash 29 MB? And the copy on the landing page is clearly AI generated with the “each layer a model of its own” stuff, makes little sense. The more I see AI generated copy the less it makes sense.

      The model can be sliced and perform the inference using a subset of its layers. The first 4 layers alone are 8 MB, all 20 are 29 MB. Fair point on the copy, tightened it.
