Z80-μLM is a retro-computing AI project that demonstrates a tiny language model (Z80-μLM) engineered to run on an 8-bit Z80 CPU by aggressively quantizing weights down to 2-bit precision. The repository provides a complete workflow where you train or fine-tune conversational models in Python, then export them into a format that can be executed on classic Z80 systems. A key deliverable is producing CP/M-compatible .COM binaries, enabling a genuinely vintage “chat with your computer”...

Needle is an experimental 26-million-parameter function-calling model designed to run on extremely small devices such as phones, watches, glasses, and low-power personal AI hardware. It is based on a Simple Attention Network architecture and was distilled from a much larger model to focus on fast, compact tool-use behavior. The project provides open weights, training details, dataset generation resources, and a playground for testing the model with custom tools. Needle is optimized for...

Moondream is a creative code project and visual experimentation repository that explores generative graphics, aesthetic patterns, and interactive art through code. The project typically showcases procedural visualizations, algorithmic designs, and artistic experiments that push the boundaries of what can be expressed with programming languages and rendering frameworks. While the exact nature can vary by commit or branch, Moondream’s work often blends geometry, color theory, and motion to...

DeiT (Data-efficient Image Transformers) shows that Vision Transformers can be trained competitively on ImageNet-1k without external data by using strong training recipes and knowledge distillation. Its key idea is a specialized distillation strategy—including a learnable “distillation token”—that lets a transformer learn effectively from a CNN or transformer teacher on modest-scale datasets. The project provides compact ViT variants (Tiny/Small/Base) that achieve excellent...

ConvNeXt V2 is an evolution of the ConvNeXt architecture that co-designs convolutional networks alongside self-supervised learning. The V2 version introduces a fully convolutional masked autoencoder (FCMAE) framework where parts of the image are masked and the network reconstructs the missing content, marrying convolutional inductive bias with powerful pretraining. A key innovation is a new Global Response Normalization (GRN) layer added to the ConvNeXt backbone, which enhances feature...
