I ran YOLO on an FPGA for my bachlor's project degree project like 7 years ago, but this is even more interesting, and I think we can push bigger models with weight streaming. I still have an FPGA lying around.

I haven't written a new blog post for it yet but there's currently a demo live of my FPGA running bonsai 8b on the same FPGA here

Its right up against the wall of DDR bandwidth, so I'm trying every trick in the book to get the speed up

Decent!! Also I love the idea of the live chat, would you mind if I put a reference to it on my repo?
