Post-Training and Data Strategy: New AI Competitive Driver
By
–
7/ We see strengths (Claude 3.5 w/coding, Gemini 1.5 w/Vision, Multilingual) from the models that are likely driven by post-training and data strategies. This is contrary to the prevailing beliefs 1 yr ago, where pre-training was believed to be the core competitive driver.

Post-Training Data Strategy: Key Competition Arena for LLMs
By
–
6/ Post-training data strategy is becoming a key arena for competition. Llama3.1 paper had 15 pg about post-training data (vs. 12 pg on pre-training), driving these capabilities: – Code
– Multilinguality
– Math/Reasoning
– Long-Context
– Tool Use
– Factuality
– Steerability -
Post-Training Data Strategies: SFT, RLHF, and DPO Approaches
By
–
4/We are also seeing remarkably similar data strategies for post-training from most labs at this point (at least what was published from Meta+Apple): – Hybrid data SFT, RLHF, & DPO setups
– Synthetic data on code and math
– Post-training data for most important capabilities -
H100 GPU Rollout Explains Timing of Recent AI Model Releases
By
–
3/The reason these are all so close together timing-wise is that every lab got their H100s at roughly the same time. They each struggled with early issues with the H100s last fall, and the big H100 clusters all started training this spring. Voila, 5-6 months later, big models!

Gemini 1.5 Pro Tops LMSYS: Google’s Compute Edge Advantage
By
–
1/Gemini 1.5 Pro 0801 is the new best model (tops LMSYS, SEAL evals incoming) Key considerations
1—OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, & Meta all right ON the frontier
2—Google has a long-term compute edge w/TPUs
3—Data & post-training becoming key competitive drivers in performance
