Description
On June 23, 2025, Microsoft unveiled Mu, an innovative 330-million-parameter encoder–decoder language model specifically crafted to enhance the agent experience within Windows environments by effectively translating natural language inquiries into function calls for Settings, all processed on-device via NPUs at a remarkable speed of over 100 tokens per second while ensuring impressive accuracy. By leveraging Phi Silica optimizations, Mu’s encoder–decoder design employs a fixed-length latent representation that significantly reduces both computational demands and memory usage, achieving a 47 percent reduction in first-token latency and a decoding speed that is 4.7 times greater on Qualcomm Hexagon NPUs when compared to other decoder-only models. Additionally, the model benefits from hardware-aware tuning techniques, which include a thoughtful 2/3–1/3 split of encoder and decoder parameters, shared weights for input and output embeddings, Dual LayerNorm, rotary positional embeddings, and grouped-query attention, allowing for swift inference rates exceeding 200 tokens per second on devices such as the Surface Laptop 7, along with sub-500 ms response times for settings-related queries. This combination of features positions Mu as a groundbreaking advancement in on-device language processing capabilities.
Description
Currently, a significant issue with most NFTs and CryptoArtworks is that their images are kept off-chain, which means if the hosting project ceases to exist, the visual elements of the artwork could be irretrievably lost. To address this challenge, we propose storing all artwork information and metadata directly on the blockchain, ensuring that the art persists indefinitely. With this approach, creators can generate and archive their art entirely on-chain, guaranteeing its longevity. Each time a PixelChain is minted, our innovative smart contract captures all image data, compresses it, and uploads it to the blockchain, along with the corresponding title and creator details. This stored information remains accessible at all times via the blockchain, enabling it to be decompressed and decoded using our open-source decoder, thus reconstructing the original artwork envisioned by the artist. This represents our Minimum Viable Product (MVP) solution for fully on-chain art storage. Additionally, we plan to deploy the same concept to preserve other artistic mediums, including music and voxel art, thereby expanding the reach of our technology.
