Project compiles NES emulator into ~1GB of Qwen weights
The nesformer project has compiled the NES 6502 CPU, its work RAM and cartridge ROM into the weights of a stock Qwen3.5 model, with every value computed by a compiler rather than trained. The model predicts the CPU's execution log token by token while a host program handles graphics and input; test games match a conventional 6502 emulator frame for frame. It builds on Qwenputer, reusing its compiler and Gated DeltaNet state as machine memory.
