How Unsloth’s Breakthrough Compression Makes It Possible for Everyone Why This Matters DeepSeek-R1, a 671-billion-parameter AI model, was previously restricted to cloud APIs due to its colossal size (720GB). Thanks to Unsloth, an open-source project led by ex-NVIDIA engineers, the model is now compressed to 131GB (80% smaller) and optimized for local deployment. Whether you’re…
Side-Channel Attack Exposes Sensitive Data on Apple Devices Security researchers have discovered two new side-channel vulnerabilities—dubbed FLOP and SLAP—that affect Apple’s A- and M-series chips, potentially exposing sensitive user data from Gmail, iCloud, and other online accounts. These flaws exploit a technique called speculative execution, allowing attackers to access restricted memory and extract valuable information….
In a seismic shift for the artificial intelligence landscape, Chinese tech firm DeepSeek has stunned industry giants by unveiling an AI image generator that reportedly surpasses OpenAI’s flagship model, DALL-E 3, in both speed and artistic fidelity. Early benchmarks and user tests suggest DeepSeek’s tool generates hyper-realistic images up to 40% faster while achieving unprecedented…
