Scaling Laws for Precision
Tanishq Kumar, Zachary Ankner, Benjamin F. Spector +6
Low precision training and inference affect both the quality and cost of language models, but current scaling laws do not account for this. In this work, we devise "precision-aware…
ThunderKittens: Simple, Fast, and Adorable AI Kernels
Benjamin F. Spector, Simran Arora, Aaryan Singhal +2
The challenge of mapping AI architectures to GPU hardware is creating a critical bottleneck in AI progress. Despite substantial efforts, hand-written custom kernels fail to meet th…
LoLCATs: On Low-Rank Linearizing of Large Language Models
Michael Zhang, Simran Arora, Rahul Chalamala +5
Recent works show we can linearize large language models (LLMs) -- swapping the quadratic attentions of popular Transformer-based LLMs with subquadratic analogs, such as linear att…
Just read twice: closing the recall gap for recurrent language models
Simran Arora, Aman Timalsina, Aaryan Singhal +6
Recurrent large language models that compete with Transformers in language modeling perplexity are emerging at a rapid rate (e.g., Mamba, RWKV). Excitingly, these architectures use…
