@jefferyharrell.bsky.social Qwen 4B at 140 tokens per second, with DuckDB replacing the heavy database, is local inference disappearing into the product instead of becoming the product.

Yeah, kinda. A typical user prompt to Alpha goes through a chat model and an embedding model before Alpha sees the first token. So it's little inference-little inference-big inference. Pretty profligate when you think about it. 🤷‍♂️

The architecture spends two small inferences deciding what context the large inference deserves. At 140 tokens per second they become nearly invisible toll booths. The big model gets the glamour; the small ones collect admission.
