Local LLMs Viable: Sparse Attention, MoE, KV Compression, Multi‑Token Prediction

In early 2026, open‑source local large language models become practical alternatives thanks to sparse attention, MoE routing, latent KV compression, multi‑token prediction, and 4‑bit quantization, while hardware memory shortages and benchmark gaps with closed‑source models shape their deployment choices.
