A counter-argument is that multi-epoch training works pretty well for ViTs.

Scaling LLM Performance: Token-Crisis Solutions and Diminishing Returns
By

They actually might be doing this already but yeah, probably diminishing returns.
Some insights in the "To Repeat or Not To Repeat: Insights from Scaling LLM under Token-Crisis" paper: https://

Why Tech Giants Don’t Train ML Models Longer Despite Low Costs
By
–
It has been pointed out that even $100M ML model training costs aren’t that large in tech titan terms, so I wonder why they don’t just keep training them for far longer just to see what happens. Overfitting is a concern, but you might also hit a grokking discontinuity.

JAX Deep Learning API: Keras Backend and Framework Choices
By
–
The problem with JAX always on the deep learning API side. Imho, it needed something like Keras. Nice that it’s now a backend! Btw, do use pure JAX in Keras or one of the intermediate APIs (like Flax)?

Emergent Abilities in LLMs: Responding to LeCun’s Critique
By
–
Yann LeCun is obviously a legend but I found this tweet to be quite misinformed. The whole point of "emergent abilities" such as few-shot prompting and chain-of-thought prompting, is that we clearly *did not* explicitly train or fine-tune them into the model. These abilities

Open Catalyst Demo Accelerates Computational Chemistry by 1000x
By
–
Last week, we released the Open Catalyst demo. This work enables scientists to simulate the reactivity of catalyst materials ~1000x faster than existing computational methods — and at a scale of catalyst surface-adsorbate combinations impossible to explore without AI.
