Wait, Fabrice Bellard[1] of FFmpeg, QEMU, TCC, etc. fame now has a SaaS offering? Is this a first?

Also, textsynth is based on their CLI program gpt2tc[2] which one can run locally.

I wonder if that means the GPT-NeoX-20B (etc) version is a drop-in replacement for the smaller models mentioned on the gpt2tc site.

He also did a sort-of SaaS-ish software/hardware 4G cell tower system IIRC

The company is Amarisoft: https://www.amarisoft.com/

It's not SaaS, it's a software solution running on Intel PC/servers. You plug a (high end) SDR or remote radio head system to feed the PC with the samples, and the rest is pure software. They sell the software. Other companies build on top to sell more complete solutions.

It's becoming quite common at companies involved cellular, as you can have a 4G/5G "network in a box" for relatively cheap and it's very useful for a first pass of testing before going in the field on a "real" network.

They also sell hardware, e.g. their callbox ( https://www.amarisoft.com/products/test-measurements/amari-l... ). FYI, the callbox mini costs around ~ 10k€.
