After open-sourcing the 1B and 3B models of Llama 3.2 in September, Meta released quantized versions of these models on October 24th, which reduce model size by an average of 56%, RAM usage by an average of 41%, and model speeds by a factor of 2 to 4, while lowering power consumption so that these models can be deployed to a wider range of mobile devices. Model Quantization is the process of converting floating-point models to fixed-point models through various training methods, which compresses the model parameters and reduces the complexity of the model so that it can be run on lighter platforms. These quantized models are faster, use less RAM, and consume less power than the non-quantized Llama BF16 models, while maintaining nearly the same accuracy as the Llama BF16 version.Although the quantized Llama 3.2 1B and 3B models only support a context of 8,000 tokens (compared to 128,000 tokens for the original models), Meta's testing found that benchmark results for both the quantized versions of Llama QLoRA and Llama SpinQuant are actually quite comparable to the original Llama BF16 version. However, Meta's testing found that both the quantized versions of Llama QLoRA and Llama SpinQuant actually benchmarked well against the original Llama BF16 version. Currently, Meta has tested these quantized models on mobile platforms such as the One Plus 12, Samsung S24+/S22, and Apple iOS devices (no specific model announced), with “good results,” and the researchers plan to improve the performance of these quantized models with neural processing units (NPUs) in the future.

On July 21, Microsoft released a recovery tool to fix Windows devices that crashed due to a buggy CrowdStrike update. Previously, a buggy update to CrowdStrike caused 8.5 million Windows devices around the world to crash on the blue screen. The new tool creates bootable USB drives that administrators can use to quickly restore affected machines. While CrowdStrike has released an update to fix the software, not all machines will automatically receive the update. Microsoft's recovery tool boots the Windows PE environment via USB, accesses the affected machine's disk, and automatically deletes the problematic CrowdStrike files. Without having to enter Safe Mode or have administrator rights to the machine, the tool can directly access the disk without booting the local Windows system. If the disk is protected by BitLocker encryption, the tool will prompt you to enter the BitLocker recovery key and then proceed to repair the CrowdStrike update. Repair tool.

On May 14, at the I / O 2024 developer conference, Google announced the introduction of AI scam call detection for Android, alerting users to possible scams during calls and encouraging them to end such calls.The feature is based on the locally running Gemini Nano model, which matches to find fraudulent language and other conversation patterns commonly associated with scams during a call. For example, if a scammer poses as a bank employee and asks for personal information such as your password or card PIN, or asks for a payment via a gift card, or asks the user to transfer money to them urgently, Gemini Nano recognizes all of the above scenarios and thus alerts the user to the risk. Security-wise, Google says that these new protections are implemented entirely on the device, so conversations monitored by the Gemini Nano will remain private. It's not yet known when this fraud detection feature will be rolled out, but Google says it's in a disabled state by default and will need to be manually enabled by the user for it to take effect, and that Google will share more information later this year.

AMD's recently released 5.02.19.2221 chipset driver supports the Riptide 7045HX "desktop processor".AMD's Riptide 7045HX is a series of gaming notebook processors, but AMD is labeling it as a desktop processor, so there are two possibilities here. One, AMD is building a new "desktop APU" with the Riptide 7045HX family of processors. The second is that AMD's driver update logs are incorrect. Considering that the Rex 7045HX processor is based on the Rex 7000 desktop processor, which has the same maximum 16-core specs as the desktop processor, and the core graphics specs are also 2CU bright-class, it is unlikely that AMD will use the Rex 7045HX as a new "desktop APU". The second possibility has higher chances. If AMD really wants to launch a successor to the R7 5700G APU, AMD should use the R7 6800H or R7 7840H chips to build the series processor, although there are only 8 CPU cores, but the scale of the core is larger, 12CU, with the performance of an entry-level single display.
