Everything on AI Infrastructure & Hardware

Google's TurboQuant compresses KV caches to 3-bit, significantly boosting data center throughput but offering limited benefit for local hardware due to pre-filling phase overhead.

Impact: Hyperscalers will maintain compute cost advantages while consumer-grade AI deployment remains constrained by hardware limitations.
