📁 LLM
The LLM archive monitors model releases, quantization updates, reasoning capabilities, and real-world deployment implications for local and hybrid AI. We focus on what materially changes selection and operations: context windows, latency, memory footprint, licensing, and evaluation evidence across open and commercial families. This section is designed for teams that need dependable model intelligence, not hype cycles. Pair these updates with the LLM pillar and references to hardware constraints and framework integration.
