Neural Networks Tolerate Mantissa Bit Reduction for Bandwidth Savings
By
–
Rough thinking: neural nets are very tolerant of noise, so chopping off mantissa bits is akin to small amounts of noise. So I'd rather lose nearly all mantissa bits before losing exponent bits. So tried dropping 16 mantissa bits & model trained just fine w/ half the bandwidth.

How @cognition /
@windsurf new SWE-1.5 model was built (probably), based on piecing together bits of information that was shared. Base model by: @Zai_org possibly GLM-4.6
RL Training: @nvidia on 'thousands' GB200 NVL72
Inference: @cerebras at 950 tks/sec
