I'm more interested in running distributed inference for purpose built small language models than these coding LLMs.

Say a distributed inference for image processing, SDR, local weather monitoring etc. These will run on mediocre specs and produce dependable output.

Nicely done OP.

Something like this is nice, where instead of having 1 model with X active experts, you have 10 different models, all small and dense, trained on specific information. and loaded on 10 different servers, with one router.

True, I've been telling that coding LLMs have been detrimental to local AI scene. What happened to those nifty ML projects which can run on raspberry pi zero.

This is actually how I develop and use the mesh at home. Rather than splitting models, I aggregate disparate compute behind one endpoint, without having separate inference providers on each host and a gateway like LiteLLM
