Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

PFor 中文文档 PLE-MoE-W1.58A8 Architecture PFor is an LLM running on ESP32-P4, although technically it should be called an SLM. It has Instruct(ChatML) and Agent capabilities, despite both being extremely early and highly unstable. Its inference speed on ESP32-P4 is about 9 tokens/s. I use the WT9932P4-Tiny development board (I bought mine on Taobao for CNY 39.9, about USD 6; it is around USD 10 on AliExpress), which has 32 MB PSRAM and 16 MB Flash. The USB connection admittedly makes "offline" look somewhat questionable. The board's Flash cannot hold the weights loaded into PSRAM, so they are transferred over USB at startup; the host performs no inference. Give it an SD card for the weights, and it can run entirely without a host.

Excerpt limited to ~120 words for fair-use compliance. The full article is at GitHub.
