RWKV.cpp - is now being deployed to half a billion systems worldwide

Making it one of the world's most widely deployed, truly open-source (apache2) AI solutions out there

As it now ships with every Windows 11 system

You can verify this yourself, by updating to the latest Windows 11 - and going to

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\vfs\ProgramFilesCommonX64\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE16

Alternatively, you could just search system files for rwkv, on any "copilot Windows 11" in an IT store

These are real binaries, which you can decompile and inspect them

They are a variation of the RWKV.cpp project, which has been built by the community, to run RWKV on nearly anything (even Raspberry Pi's) here:

github.com/RWKV/rwkv.cpp

What could Microsoft be using this for?

Our main guess would be the beta features being tested
- local copilot
- local memory recall

And it makes sense, especially for our smaller models
- we support a 100+ languages
- we are extremely low in energy cost (vs transformer)

Energy cost - Is critical for a device that aims for long battery life!

Variety of language support - is critical for shipping a product to the whole world (beyond English or Chinese)

We will eagerly keep watch on this development
