Ask HN: Minimal Viable Machine‑Learning Weights for Body Tattoo

A recent Ask HN thread posed a question about tattooing machine‑learning weights on a body. The inquiry seeks the smallest set of weights that remains functional

A recent Ask HN thread posed a question about tattooing machine‑learning weights on a body. The inquiry seeks the smallest set of weights that remains functional when tattooed. Participants discussed potential compression and quantization techniques. Some suggested extreme quantization to reduce the weight count. Others noted practical limits of skin space and durability. The discussion touched on use‑cases such as offline inference. No definitive answer was reached in the thread. The conversation reflects ongoing interest in embedding AI in unconventional media.
