Open weight AI labs are black magicians.
1.5TB -> 214GB without quality loss.
Tencent AI (@TencentAI_News): 1.5TB → 214GB. Seven times smaller, barely a dent.
That’s Hy4 preview. The trick is Sherry — our quantization method that packs weights down to 1.25 bits each. (The image shows how.)
It also unlocks a new way to run it: stitch the GPUs you already have across machines, and
