Bonsai 27B: A 27B-Class model that runs on a phone

PrismML introduces Bonsai 27B, a large language model with 27 billion parameters capable of running locally on consumer smartphones. This achievement demonstrates significant advancements in model quantization and optimization, challenging the notion that such large models require massive server infrastructure.

Background

The trend of deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) on edge devices is growing, but models of this scale (27B+) have traditionally been too resource-intensive for mobile hardware without significant cloud dependency.
