Two different tricks for fast LLM inference

Two different tricks for fast LLM inference

0 CommentsEntertainment
✨ Explore this must-read post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: Anthropic and OpenAI both recently announced “fast mode”: a way to interact with their best coding model at significantly higher speeds. These two versions of fast mode are very different. Anthropic’s offers up to 2.5x tokens per second (so around 170, up from Opus 4.6’s 65). OpenAI’s offers more than 1000 tokens per second (up from GPT-5.3-Codex’s 65 tokens per second, so 15x). So OpenAI’s fast mode is six times faster than Anthropic’s. However, Anthropic’s big advantage is that they’re serving their actual model. When…

I bought it for the equivalent of $20 and carried it around in two pieces in my bag for the rest of my trip. Ever since, I’ve been obsessed with discovering, collecting, and playing electric guitars from the Eastern Bloc.  Besides the Orpheus, I’ve bought…
