Re:Running a 180B parameter LLM on a single Apple M2 Ultra by AnthonyMouse on Thursday September 07, 2023 @06:52PM (#37426757)
Apple is just using a wide memory bus, the same as GPUs and server-class x86 CPUs do. It's not even hard, it's just not something desktop CPUs previously had any use for so the current sockets don't support it.

And you could do the same thing without even changing the socket by including RAM on the CPU package as an L4 cache. Some of the Intel server CPUs are already doing this.
