AirLLM is a tool that lets you run very large AI models on computers with limited memory by using a smart layer-by-layer loading technique instead of traditional compression methods. You can run a 70-billion-parameter model on just 4GB of GPU memory, or even a 405-billion-parameter model on 8GB, without losing model quality. The benefit is that you can use powerful AI models on affordable hardware without expensive upgrades, and the tool also offers optional compression features that can speed up performance by up to 3 times while maintaining accuracy.

Grand #Ethiopian Renaissance Dam: how #Africa’s largest hydropower project Is powering #Ethiopia’s future
A detailed examination of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam – its construction, specifications, commissioning, regional impact, and remaining challenges.
The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (#GERD) is the largest hydropower project in Africa. Located on the #Blue_Nile in Ethiopia’s #Benishangul-Gumuz region, about 14km from the Sudanese border, the project has been delivered by Ethiopian Electric Power (#EEP) with major civil works undertaken by #Webuild Group (formerly #Salini Impregilo).
The objective of the dam is to increase Ethiopia’s electricity generation capacity, reduce dependence on imported energy, and support long-term industrial and economic development.
Construction began in 2011, and Ethiopia officially inaugurated......
