Prediction: LLM decoding goes compute-bound next year; Sol 6 may decode sparsely
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-11-06
Hanchi Sun predicts that decoding will become compute-bound by next year. teortaxesTex quotes the take alongside another observation: while GPT-5.6 decodes faster than Sol 6, the two would run at the same speed on Cerebras hardware — hinting that Sol 6's decoding may be more sparse. A terse but notable insider discussion on inference compute economics and model–hardware matching.
