I love the title "Big LLMs" because it means that we are now making a distinction between big LLMs and minute LLMs and maybe medium LLMs. I'd like to propose the we call them "Tall LLMs", "Grande LLMs", and "Venti LLMs" just to be precise.

Why not LLLM for large LLM’s and SLLM for small LLM’s, assuming there is no middle ground

VLLM, Super VLLM, Almost Large Language Model

can we have tiny LLM that can run on smartphone now

Is a tiny large language model equivalent to a normal sized one?

“We should regard the Internet Archive as one of the most valuable pieces of modern history; instead, many companies and entities make the chances of the Archive to survive, and accumulate what otherwise will be lost, harder and harder. I understand that the Archive headquarters are located in what used to be a church: well, there is no better way to think of it than as a sacred place.”

Amen. There is an active effort to create an Internet Archive based in Europe, just… in case.

Big LLM is too long as a name. We should agree on calling them BLLMs. Surely everyone is going to remember what the letters stand for.

Well, it did establish a new HQ in Canada…

Enjoy the insight, but the title makes my eye twitch. How about "LLM weights are pieces of history"?

Small LLM weights are not really interesting though. I am currently training GPT-2 small sized models for a scientific project right, and their world models are just not good enough to generate any kind of real insight about the world it was trained in except for corpus biases.

M, LM, LLM, LLLM, L3M, L4M.

Gotta leave room for future expansion.
