RT @Eric_Wallace_: Not everyone can afford to train huge neural models. So, we typically *reduce* model size to train/test faster. However, you should actually *increase* model size to speed up training and inference for transformers. Why? [1/6] 👇 https://t.co/GcjytCEmox https://t.co/HatYO5GfhP https://t.co/ivKyNo1ve0

Saw this interesting project on r/ML that seems to be highly unconventional and non-mainstream. There are many independent researchers who have their own theories of how AI should work, but they have a GitHub repo, papers, and decent RL benchmark results. https://t.co/gZ1VoMBW2Q https://t.co/itEz7bQBzx https://t.co/kH026lQKZC
