BootGPT runs a tiny neural net from your PC's boot sector
What is A language model that lives in a boot sector?
BootGPT embeds a 11.5 KB int8 neural network in the MBR and loads it in 16-bit real mode. On power-up it prints a fabricated Linux kernel boot log, without any OS or runtime.
Who it is for
Hardware hackers and AI enthusiasts can see how far a model can be compressed and run on a bare-metal BIOS.
