clearly in five years SOTA AI models will train on a single string containing approximately 2^21 tokens

well they have to train it like this or it wouldn't work nearly as well

AI Datasets Shift: Fewer Examples, Longer Sequences
By
–
an interesting trend in AI is that the best datasets have fewer and fewer longer and longer sequences dataset five years ago:
~10^5 examples, each of 2^6 tokens nowadays:
~10^3 examples, each of 2^15 tokens it’s actually more data. but the tokens are stacked horizontally now -

RETRO: Revisiting DeepMind’s Knowledge Outsourcing Architecture
By
–
RETRO (DeepMind, 2021) is a beautiful idea, one badly in need of revisiting the central innovation of retro is to have a small model decide what token to predict next, but outsource all knowledge to a large offline datastore this has the added benefit of allowing you to insert

Open Models Cannot Match This Capability Yet
By

we don't have any open model that produces anything remotely like this and that is my point

DeepSeek outputs strike different compared to other AI models
By
–
yes me too! but it's still so different than the deepseek outputs, so striking

OpenAI vs DeepSeek: AI Reasoning Race Accelerates Dramatically
By
–
these reasoning traces have been keeping me up at night on the left: new OpenAI model that got IMO gold
on the right: DeepSeek R1 on a random math problem you need to realize that since last year academia has produced over a THOUSAND papers on reasoning (probably much more). -

Thyroid Cancer Diagnosis Led Me to ML and NLP

in college i was diagnosed with an unusual thyroid cancer. i tried building a pipeline to aggregate & summarize information from pubmed and clinical trials to my great surprise the summarization part was pretty bad. this got me interested in ML and NLP
