4 Mac Minis Run a 70B Model That No Single One Could Hold
4 Mac Minis running a 70B model is a testament to the power of distributed computing. Each Mini is a base M4, 16GB RAM, and costs $429 apiece. Alone, nothing special, but together, they can handle a massive model that no single one could hold.
Key Points:
4 Mac Minis: running a 70B model demonstrates the power of distributed computing.
Each Mini: is a base M4, 16GB RAM, and costs $429 apiece.
Distributed computing: allows for handling massive models that no single machine can handle.

I Think People Are Over-Attributing Astra's Success to "Recurrent Depth"
I think people are over-attributing Astra's success to "recurrent depth" or loop transformers. OpenAI has little reason to publicly leak the architectural breakthrough behind its latest gains. Even if they do use looping, it is probably almost a year old now.
Key Points:
People: are over-attributing Astra's success to "recurrent depth" or loop transformers.
OpenAI: has little reason to publicly leak the architectural breakthrough behind its latest gains.
Looping: is probably almost a year old now.

I Don't Think We Get to GPT-7 Without a Plateau in the Technology
I don't think we get to GPT-7 without either a plateau in the technology or something fairly seismic happening. "Seismic" includes many subcategories, not all of them bad. But the present course of rapid AI advancements while society is ~basically the same is running on fumes.
Key Points:
We won't get: to GPT-7 without a plateau in the technology or something seismic happening.
"Seismic" includes many: subcategories, not all of them bad.
The present course: of rapid AI advancements is running on fumes.
