I Fixed Microsoft's BitNet C++ Kernels: How to Run 1-Bit LLMs on Pure CPU Without Compiling
Earlier this year, Microsoft Research published the BitNet b1.58 paper, demonstrating that 1-bit ternary models {-1, 0, +1} replace floating-point matrix multiplications with simple integer additions on CPU. On paper, this delivers 70–80% lower energy draw and extreme CPU inference throughput. Howe…
