Circumventing Biden AI Model Training Restrictions Through Parameter Scaling
By

the biden executive order put restrictions on models that:
• contain at least 10^9 parameters
• use more than 10^26 floating-point operations my future company will get around these restrictions by simply training a 9,999,999 billion param model comprised of 8192-bit floats -
AI Objectives vs Parental Influence on Children’s Development
