If they can reinvent RL so it works with this then I guess the big labs will be all over it, as ~halving inference costs would be huge (especially if Ed Zitron's leaked OpenAI inf costs are accurate). Potentially the difference between inferencing being profitable and loss making. It's an elegant approach. I also wonder how far they can push K if other aspects are tweaked. The approach of just doubling each parameter each time leaves a lot of space between the chosen value and the next value known to not work.
