Will major electronics retailers (Best Buy, Amazon, etc in US; other countries also count) sell consumer storage devices (most likely SSD) with LLM (or other neural network) files pre-loaded? That will provide a large buff for fast inference on users' devices, and would resemble games/music/other content packaged on CDs. As of now, all AI models are accessed through cloud services or require separate downloads.

Resolution based on product listings and announcements from major retailers; please comment on this market if you see any.

  • Update 2025-05-01 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): - Only storage devices with ≥2.5 GB of pre-loaded models qualify (any less is too small for users to do anything useful)

    • Must be specifically storage devices (allowed to be several in a package) sold, not as integral components of smartphones or similar devices.
