    Eventually, multi-modality might even get offloaded as workflows, which might allow models to do this at a fraction of the data and compute required. I am adding multi-modality to …

    I did some research about scaling laws and what's unsolved there. This project was built on structural sparsity, do away with any requirements to train models on largely outdated c…

    You would already be able to see RSI and loops being a thing. So there's going to be more and more research coming out telling you what size of models are really needed to solve a …

    Very true. In fact, there's a lot more under the surface that will come to light once more efficient tiny models come out. P.S. Building something that proves that you don't need t…
