About SN64 Chutes
Most of the work inside an AI model is multiplying numbers. Parallax stores most of its weights as -1, 0 or 1, and at least half of those are zero, which a GPU can skip. On one RTX 5090 that’s the difference between 209 teraflops and 3,352. Part of the jump is the card’s 4-bit mode, and skipping the zeros doubles it again. Those are the chip’s rated speeds, not measured ones. It’s a big part of how one card hit almost 18,000 tokens a second.
