Nvidia finds that simple linear math can replace costly AI model handoffs

Nvidia researchers introduced a cross-model KV cache transfer technique that maps prefilled caches between models, replacing expensive recomputation when agentic workloads hand off. The method uses simple linear math to cut compute cost and latency in multi-LLM workflows.
