Hon Hai Research Institute Launches FoxBrain, a Traditional Chinese LLM

Mar 10, 2025
Hon Hai Research Institute has introduced FoxBrain, a Traditional Chinese Large Language Model with advanced reasoning capabilities, as announced in a press release. The model, optimized for Taiwanese users, was developed using efficient training methods.

Hon Hai Research Institute has announced the launch of FoxBrain, the first Traditional Chinese Large Language Model (LLM) with advanced reasoning capabilities, as stated in a press release. Developed by the AI Research Center, FoxBrain is designed for applications within Hon Hai Technology Group's internal systems, including data analysis, decision support, and code generation.

FoxBrain is based on the Meta Llama 3.1 architecture and features 70 billion parameters. It demonstrates strong performance in mathematical and logical reasoning tests, outperforming other models like Llama-3-Taiwan-70B. The model was trained using 120 NVIDIA H100 GPUs over four weeks, showcasing an efficient and cost-effective training process.

The institute plans to open-source FoxBrain in the future, aiming to expand its applications in manufacturing, supply chain management, and intelligent decision-making. The model's development highlights Taiwan's competitive edge in AI technology, achieving near world-class standards despite limited computational resources.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
