Google DeepMind has released Gemma 4: four models—31B dense, 26B MoE (A4B), E4B, and E2B—with a 256K context, multimodal input, tool calling, and support for 140 languages.
SwiftLM, an Apple Silicon–only MLX inference server, provides a native Metal implementation of TurboQuant V2+V3 hybrid KV‑cache compression and NVMe SSD expert streaming.
Flash-MoE is a C/Metal inference engine that runs Qwen3.5-397B-A17B on a MacBook Pro M3 Max at 4.36 tokens/s. With expert streaming from SSD and hand-written Metal shaders, it fits the 209GB model into a 48GB memory budget.
