â—† What Changed

Standard data types → Specialized HiFloat4 for LLM ops.

â—‡ Why It Matters

Infra teams get faster training/inference, lower compute costs.

🛠 Builder Opportunity

Research and implement HiFloat4 for custom model architectures.

âš¡ Next Step

→ Monitor for framework/hardware support for HiFloat4 in LLM pipelines.
