Mesh LLM enables distributed AI inference across devices
Mesh LLM, built on the iroh protocol, allows large language models to run collaboratively across multiple devices without centralized servers. The system splits model layers across peers, enabling inference on hardware that couldn't handle the full model alone. Early tests show it can run a 7B parameter model on a cluster of consumer laptops.

Distributed inference could democratize access to large models, but latency and reliability across heterogeneous devices remain unproven at scale.
