AI Deep Learning Large Language Models

Are Retentive Networks A Successor to Transformer for Large Language Models?

Retention is an alternative to Attention in Transformers that can both be written in a parallel and in a recurrent fashion. This means the architecture achieves training parallelism while maintaining low-cost inference. Experiments in the paper look very promising. Yannic Kilcher elaborates.

This is a game changer! (AlphaTensor by DeepMind explained)

Matrix multiplication is the most used mathematical operation in all of science and engineering. Speeding this up has massive consequences. Thus, over the years, this operation has become more and more optimized. A fascinating discovery was made when it was shown that one actually needs less than N^3 multiplication operations to multiply to NxN matrices. […]

How to make your CPU as fast as a GPU – Advances in Sparsity w/ Nir Shavit

Sparsity is awesome, but only recently has it become possible to properly handle sparse models at good performance. Neural Magic does exactly this, using a plain CPU. No specialized hardware needed, just clever algorithms for pruning and forward-propagation of neural networks. Nir Shavit and I talk about how this is possible, what it means in […]
