Dev compiles Game Boy CPU instructions into Qwen weights, runs via unmodified HF inference
vincent_koc · x · 2026-10-31
- Developer vincentkoc showed off a gloriously cursed experiment: using local AI to build local AI, his compiler can now emit Game Boy CPU instructions and cartridge bank-switching directly into Qwen-compatible model weights.
- Per the screenshot, a small program already ran through unmodified Hugging Face inference and matched the reference, with broader instruction tests passing in the optimized executor. He teases Pokemon on Game Boy coming next.
