you could also use "mps" (Apple), "xpu" (Intel), "hip" (AMD) GPUs and "xla" for TPUs. But yeah, those are less mature.

LitGPT Pre-training Implementation and OLMo 2 Recommendation
By
–
We implemented pre-training in LitGPT (e.g., it was used to train TinyLlama back then): https://
github.com/Lightning-AI/l
itgpt/blob/main/litgpt/pretrain.py
…
I would strongly recommend looking at OLMo 2 otherwise: https://

Agreed. Btw decision trees were the first ML/AI method I taught in my Stat 451 classes back then:

NVIDIA’s 10-Year Lead in CUDA and Scientific Computing
By
–
"NVIDIA has a ~10 year lead with their general purpose compute language CUDA" Yes, this!!
I was in a research lab 14 years ago where we used CUDA (and Nvidia-sponsored GPUs) for molecular dynamics simulations. Nividia has a big head start in scientific computing. -

AI Degree Advice: Foundation in Math, Stats, Physics Instead
By
–
Maybe a hot take, but what about the following advice to the next gen: Don't get an AI degree; the curriculum will be outdated before you graduate. Instead, study math, stats, or physics as your foundation, and stay current with AI through code-focused books, blogs, and papers.

GQA Implementation Guide for Llama Model Conversion
By
–
Nice work! In case you get stuck, I've implemented GQA as part of the GPT -> Llama conversion guides: https://

…
But since you already implemented MQA, GQA should be pretty smooth sailing 🙂
