its much easier to verify than to solve and this is the foundation all management runs on, thats why if you have good taste you would want people working under you.

so ideally one must keeping going higher and higher while making sure all that matters is according to their taste :D

hmm hmm
whatever you’re working on, no matter how exciting/ambitious you think it is

it will probably be 2-5x less exciting when the next model drops (at least)

so you should be working on things which have 100-100x the ambition levels, the potentially batshit crazy impossible ideas

PSA to everyone doing neuron interp after the recent monosemantic neuron posts: the model's training recipe matters a lot.

e.g. GPT2 seems to have been trained WITH dropout (modern LLMs are not), which seems to increase redundancy and (maybe) polysemanticity but reduce superposition (see sources in comments).

Other choices probably also have an effect (e.g. SwiGLU vs GELU MLPs, optimizer, amount of weight decay, etc.) and I think we should be careful not to generalize too much.

Currently working on a project to characterize the effects of these choices on neuron interpretability (a lot of the existing work is done on older/toy models which I'm not sure are representative), feel free to reach out if interested!

wrote a technical blog on how to train nanogpt2 in moe style without a load balancer. do give it a read.

happy sunday you all! now i should log out, rest and sip some matcha.
