Qwenputer embeds a RISC-V CPU inside model weights
What happened
On October 29, Hacker News featured Qwenputer, a project that embeds a working deterministic RISC-V CPU inside the weights of the Qwen 3.5 4B model and uses the Gated DeltaNet state as RAM. Execution happens inside the model's forward pass and can run arithmetic, C and MicroPython with no external runtime or tool calls. The report covers only this embedded-CPU approach and what it can execute: model weights and state carry the CPU and memory, and programs run during forward computation.
