    This is dope, is this kind of like Wafer.ai but for local models? As in a coding agent optimizes the kernels so the local model runs continuously better? Cause that is compelling if so. If it’s more simple that’s cool too

      I would say the overall idea of trying to achieve performant inference for agent workloads is the strongest commonality with Wafer.

      It's not a coding agent running on your device optimizing the kernels, we have a system for writing kernels that can be tuned on the target device automatically. So we write the efficient high level kernel structure with tunable parameters, then it fits to whatever hardware it's actually running on.
