Summary

Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue claims local open-weight AI performance on laptops is improving 4.7x faster than Moore's Law, citing progress from Llama 3 70B to DeepSeek V4 Flash on unchanged hardware.

Local open-weight AI on a laptop has been improving more than twice as fast as Moore's Law! Between May 2024 and May 2026, the most expensive MacBook Pro you could buy stayed at 128 GB of unified memory. The hardware ceiling barely moved. But the smartest open-weight model from @huggingface you could actually run on it went from a score of 10 (Llama 3 70B) to 47 (DeepSeek V4 Flash on @antirez's mixed-Q2 GGUF) on the @ArtificialAnlys Intelligence Index. That is 4.7× in 24 months, or a doubling of intelligence every 10.7 months. Moore's Law (transistor count) doubles every 24 months. Local open-weight AI on a laptop has been improving more than twice as fast as Moore's Law, on completely unchanged hardware.
