PHYSIX OBSERVATION
On-device large models are shifting from 'can run' to 'runs smoothly'; running an MoE model in 3GB of memory means local multimodal inference on flagship phones is no longer far off. ModelBest is betting on both MoE and cross-platform adaptation at once, aiming to seize the entry point of the on-device AI ecosystem, but whether real-world experience and the developer ecosystem can keep up is the key test.
