A 125-billion-parameter model can run on 12G of VRAM, relying mainly on model quantization and a mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture, achieved by activating only part of the expert parameters, quantizing weights to 4bit or lower, and dynamically loading inactive parameters from memory or SSD on demand.
