In plain words
Duo is a home AI computer designed to function as a personal assistant for household management. It integrates with internet-connected devices and systems through APIs, enabling voice-controlled automation and smart home control. Built on artificial intelligence technology, Duo aims to provide hands-free interaction with home environments and connected devices, similar to fictional AI assistants. The system is intended for homeowners looking to centralize control of their smart home setup through a dedicated AI device.

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15).

The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
