Daniel Han wrote Unsloth, the reason half of open-source can fine-tune a model on one GPU instead of a cluster.
He didn’t optimize the math. He rewrote the kernels by hand, found bugs in everyone else’s code, and made training 2 to 3 times faster with zero accuracy loss.
Millions of fine-tunes run through his code every month. Most people training a model locally are standing on it without knowing.
Everyone talks about who has the most GPUs. He made yours enough.

@AI_jacksaku: This week’s GitHub dark horse—Unsloth speeds up AI model training 2-5× while cutting VRAM use by 80%. What does that mean? Fine-tuning a large model used to require an A100 cluster and tens of thousands of dollars. Now one RTX 4090 can finish the job in a few hours. How? By optimizing attention compute, eliminating redundant memory copies, and adding QLoRA & Flash Attention support.
