Needle 2 Local AI Packs a 45-Million Parameter LLM Into Just 14MB

Needle 2, a 14-megabyte Agentic Large Language Model (LLM) developed by Cactus Compute, demonstrates how compact AI can thrive in resource-constrained environments. With just 45 million parameters, it is designed to run on minimal hardware like the ESP32S3 microcontroller, allowing advanced functionality without the need for high-end devices. Unlike general-purpose AI systems, Needle 2 focuses […]
