- irthomasthomas 1y agoOh, I didn't know that. Weird!
- reissbaker 1y agoIt was natively trained in FP4. Probably both to reduce VRAM usage at inference time (fits on a single H100), and to allow better utilization of B200s (which are especially fast for FP4).
- irthomasthomas 1y agoInteresting, thanks. I didn't know you could even train at FP4 on H100s
- reissbaker 1y agoIt's impressive they got it to work — the lowest I'd heard of this far was native FP8 training.
