Could you build this?
Partial Writing a deployment script or UI is easy, but running 27B parameter models with ternary quantization on consumer RTX hardware requires specialized low-level inference kernels.
What it would actually take: This project requires custom CUDA/C++ kernels designed specifically for ternary (1.58-bit / ternary weight) matrix multiplication and tensor unpacking on modern NVIDIA architectures (such as Blackwell/Ada). A developer needs deep systems and ML systems expertise to integrate these low-level kernels with high-performance inference frameworks like vLLM, TensorRT-LLM, or custom C++ engines like NInfer to manage KV cache and memory bandwidth effectively.
