Story

Sakana AI open-sourced a hypernetwork that generates LoRA adapters in sub-second from documents 5x longer than the base model's context window. This means you can specialize a model to your documentation instantly without fine-tuning pipelines. If you build products that need model customization per-customer, this changes your architecture.
