The Programming Language Wars

3.6 is model number, 35B is total number of parameters, A3B means that only 3B parameters are activated, which has some implications for serving (either in you you shard the model, or you can keep the total params on RAM and only road to VRAM what you need to compute the current token, which will make it slower, but at least it runs)

During pre-training the model is learning next-token prediction, which is naturally additive. Even if you added DEL as a token it would still be quite hard to change the data so that it can be used in a mext-token prediction task Hope that helps

Probably figured out the exact cause of the bug but not how to solve it

It says Gemini App, not AI Overviews, AI Mode, etc

Anthropic has amazing scientists and engineers, but when it comes to results that align with the narrative of LLMs being conscious, or intelligent, or similar properties, they tend to blow the results out of proportion

Edit: In my opinion at least, maybe they would say that if models are exhibiting that stuff 20% of the time nowadays then we’re a few years away from that reaching > 50%, or some other argument that I would disagree with probably

It's their lab notes, so it's exploring a general idea, but they're also referencing previous software they've built (like crosscut)

Gemini 2.5 Deep Think 12 months ago

Mixture of Experts isn't using multiple models with different specialties, it's more like a sparsity technique, where you massively increase the number of parameters and use only a subset of the weights in each forward pass.

I believe you will find the majority of progressive Jews has said that Israel, and more specifically the government of Israel, does not speak for Jews worldwide. In fact many rabbis have written about the nauseating position of having Israel be considered a representative of all Jews by so many people

I don't want to hunt the details on each of theses releases, but

* You can use less GPUs if you decrease batch size and increase number of steps, which would lead to a longer training time

* FP8 is pretty efficient, if Grok was trained with BF16 then LLama 4 should could need less GPUs because of that

* Depends also on size of the model and number of tokens used for training, unclear whether the total FLOPS for each model is the same

* MFU/Maximum Float Utilization can also vary depending on the setup, which also means that if you're use better kernels and/or better sharding you can reduce the number of GPUs needed

I mean they're not comparing with Gemini 2.5, or the o-series of models, so not sure they're really beating the first point (and their best model is not even released yet)

Is the new license different? Or is it still failing for the same issues pointed by the second point?

I think the problem with the 3rd point is that LeCun is not leading LLama, right? So this doesn't change things, thought mostly because it wasn't a good consideration before

I mean you didn't mention autoregressive models anywhere in your comment, whereas the post is about the connection between diffusion and autoregressive modelling. Also it's a blog post, if it has figured out a speed-up or improved method it would probably have been a paper
