Alex Meiburg, assistant professor at UWaterloo, shared footage of a small AI model running on a ROG AZOTH keyboard that lights the next predicted key. In replies he stated the project is for fun and not meant to be useful. The slowed video lets viewers see the lighting effect. The model does not learn habits or memorize passwords. Other users noted similar past experiments with Markov chains and speculated about future tiny models on constrained hardware.
I overwrote my keyboard's firmware so that it runs a tiny character-level language model to predict the next key you'll hit. It has per-key backlight LEDs and just lights up the ones you're likely to hit. All inference local on the microprocessor - works without the computer too!
