AI model compression startup Multiverse raises $570M at $1.7B valuation

SiliconANGLE 1 month ago 26 3 sources

Multiverse Computing, an AI model compression startup, raised $570 million in Series C funding at a $1.7 billion valuation, roughly five times its previous round valuation from June 2025. The company's CompactifAI technology uses tensor networks to reduce large language model sizes by 50–95%, enabling powerful models like Meta's Llama 3.3 70B to run on consumer hardware such as laptops and smartphones with minimal accuracy loss. The funding enables Multiverse to expand its model library, advance compression algorithms, invest in AI infrastructure, and establish regional operations across Asia, the Middle East, Canada, and the United States.

The Sequence Knowledge #902: Learning About Distillation: When the Dataset Becomes the Teacher

Substack 1 month ago 25

Large language models can now generate synthetic training data for smaller models to learn from, shifting machine learning from excavating existing datasets to having capable models create custom learning experiences. The key mechanism involves running an expensive model offline to produce questions, answers, and explanations that become a dataset for training a smaller student model. This approach reduces production costs by eliminating the need for the large model at inference time while transferring some of its capabilities to the lighter student model.
