Great systems engineering by

.

And also a reminder that dense feedback loops need dense compute access. Local tests, traces, microbenchmarks, and end-to-end runs take a lot of iteration.

That's why open models and open compute go hand in"

Still, it helped take the system from first successful run to production in"
