"As LLMs cannot grow infinitely large but do improve with size, researchers must find ways to make the technology effective at smaller scales. One well-known method is Mixture-of-Experts, where an LLM activates only a portion of itself to generate a response (text, photo, video) based on a prompt. This makes a larger model effectively smaller and faster during operation. mHC promises to be even more fundamental. It offers the chance to increase model complexity without the pain points of the past."
"Hyper-Connections (the HC in mHC) showed great promise back in September 2024. They allow information to flow through AI models in a more dynamic way. In other words, AI can form complex connections like never before. The problem was that this deeper knowledge quickly led to confusion: add too many Hyper-Connections and the AI model loses stability and stops learning. mHC (Manifold-Constrained) finally makes this theory workable."
mHC (Manifold-Constrained Hyper-Connections) is a method for LLMs to store and process information more efficiently by creating structured, higher-capacity pathways within models. Hyper-Connections enable dynamic, complex routing but previously caused instability when overused. Manifold constraints apply mathematical structure to those routes to preserve stability and continued learning. Residual connections act as simple 1-to-1 conduits, while mHC enables richer internal connectivity without proportional increases in compute or model size. The approach allows greater model complexity at smaller scales, reducing operational cost and improving GenAI scalability and performance in 2026.
