Paper-Based LLM: 780 Volumes, 30 Years Per Token
By
–
Product idea for OpenAI (I know a lot of you follow me): an entirely paper-based LLM. Just 780 volumes and only 30 person years to do the math for the first token using the paper version of GPT-1 Give the weights actual weight. Plus an excellent setup for science fiction stories

Amdahl’s Law: Limits of Parallel Computing and Sublinear Speedup
By
–
Amdahl’s law gets you there — you can linearly scale throughput on independent tasks, or scale up problems to utilize more parallel resources, but scaling a fixed task across parallel resources always has sublinear speed up. Also significantly more work.
