A single AI cluster is built by combining a MacBook Pro with a processing power of 10.6 TFLOPS and a PC equipped with a GeForce RTX 4060 Ti with a processing power of 1544.0 TFLOPS.<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/i.gzn.jp\/img\/2025\/07\/06\/exo-ai-cluster\/02.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/02_m.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" class=\"lzsmall\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>According to the exo project page, it supports devices such as &#8216;iPhone&#8217;, &#8216;iPad&#8217;, &#8216;Android devices&#8217;, &#8216;Mac&#8217;, &#8216;NVIDIA GPU&#8217;, and &#8216;Raspberry Pi&#8217;. In other words, by using exo, you can effectively use &#8216;smartphones that have been replaced and are no longer of use&#8217; or &#8216;Raspberry Pis that were bought for electronic work but are not used&#8217; for AI processing.<\/p>\n<p>exo supports AI model series such as &#8216;Llama&#8217;, &#8216;Mistral&#8217;, &#8216;LLaVA&#8217;, &#8216;Qwen&#8217;, and &#8216;Deepseek&#8217;. For example, in the case of &#8216;llama 3.1 8B (fp16)&#8217;, which requires 16GB of memory to run, it can be run by combining multiple devices such as &#8216;two MacBook Airs with M3 chips with 8GB of memory&#8217; or &#8216;two Raspberry Pi 400s with 4GB of memory and one Mac Mini with 8GB of memory&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, exo is in the early experimental stages of development and is looking for developers. In addition, a development contribution program with a bounty is also being developed.
