This is not about _Large_ Language models though. This explains math for word vectors and token embeddings. I see this is the source of confusion for many people. They think LLMs just do this to statistically predict the next word. That was

Same. It acts like its output tokens are for free. My input output ratio is like 1 to 10 at least. Not counting "Thought" and it's internal generation for agentic tasks.

This. ChatGPT also agrees with you: "74 GB weight read is per pass, not per token." I was checking the math in this blog post with GPT to understand it better and it seems legit for the given assumptions.

I think the author is confusing the attention mechanism with attention in the general sense. He refers to a phenomenon called “attention drift”, but neither Google nor LLM searches return any relevant references to that term. In fact, ChatG

One key element missing from all these model cards are the model size/number of parameters. Without that info we are in the dark. We can't predict the future of AI. How does the intelligence scale with the increasing #parameters?
