One thing that caught my interest is this line from their readme:
> PowerInfer exploits such an insight to design a GPU-CPU hybrid inference engine: hot-activated neurons are preloaded onto the GPU for fast access, while cold-activated neurons are computed on the CPU, thus significantly reducing GPU memory demands and CPU-GPU data transfers.
Apple's Metal/M3 is perfect for this because CPU and GPU share memory. No need to do any data transfers. Checkout mlx from apple: https://github.com/ml-explore/mlx
