episode The Neural Deep Dive 2026-06-03: Killing the VRAM Tax cover

Description

The memory wall has finally met its match. This week, we tear down TurboQuant, the new two-stage compression breakthrough from Google and Tether that achieves a massive 5x reduction in KV cache footprints to squeeze 70B models onto consumer-grade GPUs. From the technical wizardry of random orthogonal rotations to the market-disrupting implications for NVIDIA and local inference, we’re exploring whether this is a true "democratization" of AI or just a strategic power play by Tether.
