Scaling the Next Paradigm of Heterogeneous Intelligence
summary
Uploader data shows a heterogeneous stack where a mixture of Qwen 3 VL8B and Kimi K2.5 outperforms GPT and Gemini on Video Web Arena by 18% and 25% while costing 3.7× less and running 3× faster. Offloading routing, zoom and visual parsing to smaller models yields 11× speed and 43× cost improvements on those subtasks. Recursive long‑context workloads on Cerebras match frontier accuracy while cutting cost 7× and latency 5×. Callosum reports an automation layer that routes subtasks to optimal chip and model.
