# Bonsai κ-Stream

**[Bonsai-8B](https://huggingface.co/prism-ml/Bonsai-8B-gguf) by Prism ML — 8 billion parameters
at 1.125 true bits/weight — streamed into your browser like a film and run on WebGPU. No server,
no account, no build step: one static page.**

What makes this different from downloading a model:

- **Content-addressed streaming.** The model is a [κ-object](https://huggingface.co/HOLOGRAMTECH/q-bonsai-8b):
  399 blocks raced over parallel connections, each verified against its content address
  **before** it is decompressed or touches the GPU. A shard-grid shows the mind materializing.
- **Yours after one visit.** Blocks persist in browser storage — the second visit loads with
  **zero network** and works offline. Any static mirror of the same bytes is an equal origin,
  because the bytes, not the host, carry identity.
- **The weights are the published model.** The trained binary sign bits pass through byte-exact
  (no re-quantization); the GEMV kernel dequantizes inside the matmul, so weights never expand
  to dense floats in memory. ~35–45 tok/s on a consumer laptop GPU, thinking mode intact.
- **Part of a living system.** This same engine and ladder run [Q](https://hologram-technologies.github.io/hologram-os/),
  a serverless browser OS where Bonsai serves as a second brain that takes over mid-conversation
  from an instant 2B wafer.

Requires WebGPU (Chrome/Edge 113+). Created using **Bonsai by Prism ML** (Apache-2.0) on the
Hologram κ-substrate.
