Demystifying attention, the key mechanism inside transformers and LLMs.
[custom_views_and_hn_comments hn_id=”40015185″] My startup Truss (gettruss.io) released a few LLM-heavy features in the last six months, and the narrative around LLMs that I read on Hacker News is now starting to diverge from my reality, so I thought I’d share some of the more “surprising” lessons after churning…
We are sharing details of our next generation chip in our Meta Training and Inference Accelerator (MTIA) family. MTIA is a long-term bet to provide the most efficient architecture for Meta’s unique workloads.
I’m a bit behind on my weeknotes, so there’s a lot to cover here. But first... a review of the last 24 hours of Large Language Model news. All times …
OpenAI’s GPT-4 Turbo with Vision model scores worse on aider’s code editing benchmarks than all the previous GPT-4 models. In particular, it seems much more prone to “lazy coding” than the existing GPT-4 Turbo “preview” models.
Intel Gaudi 3 AI accelerator brings global enterprises choice for generative AI, building on the performance and scalability of its Gaudi 2 predecessor.
Introducing OLMo 7B, a truly open, state-of-the-art large language model.
A feature platform that offers observability and management tools, allows ML practitioners to use a variety of data sources, while handling…
Demystifying code AI: Learn how Cody analyzes context, retrieves references, prompts models, and refines completions behind the scenes.
I had a really enlightening talk with Daniel Slutsky this week (who is an exceptional data scientist, software engineer, and community organizer I highly…
This document proposes an analysis of the systemic impact of AI systems, and in particular ones based on Machine Learning models, on the Web, and the role that Web standardization may play in managing that impact.

This post covers Natural Language Processing fundamentals that are essential to understanding all of today’s language models.
My comments on the NTIA AI Open Model Weights RFC
OpenAI’s comment to the NTIA on open model weights This comment was submitted by OpenAI in response to NTIA’s March 2024 Request for Information on Dual-Use Foundation Models with Widely Available Weights.
We’re making it easier for people to experience the benefits of AI without needing to sign up
TL;DR Yes, albeit with patience.
Last Updated: January 23, 2026There’s no question that AI will impact jobs. But which jobs are more likely…
LAION-5B is an open-source foundation dataset. It contains 5.8 billion image and text pairs—a size too large to make sense of. We follow the construction of the dataset to better understand its contents, implications and entanglements.
I attended the Story Discovery At Scale data journalism conference at Stanford this week. One of the perennial hot topics at any journalism conference concerns data extraction: how can we …
GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DEMO DISCORD Introduction Since the surge in interest sparked by Mixtral, research on mixture-of-expert (MoE) models has gained significant momentum. Both researchers and practitioners are keenly interested in understanding how to effectively train such models and assessing their…
Discover OpenVoice: Instant voice cloning technology that replicates voices from short audio clips. Supports multiple languages, emotion and accent control, and cross-lingual cloning. Efficient and cost-effective, outperforming commercial APIs. Explore the future of AI voice synthesis.
Researchers find large language models use a simple mechanism to retrieve stored knowledge when they respond to a user prompt. These mechanisms can be leveraged to see what the model knows about different subjects and possibly to correct false information it has stored.
