Great to see this but dataset is the trickiest part. There is no way to confirm if this is good dataset unless model is actually trained on it. To reproduce LLaMA, you need $2M of compute.

This idea of doing layoffs and then using it to fund stock buybacks is really catching on. We should call this “double booster” for stock prices even when company is clearly failing.

This dude looks like another “content creator” mission on putting out click optimized links with no substance, no data and no real research. These amature opinion distributors are cancer to information society.

From eq 2.2, additive part is usually in few 10s of millions. So, for N > 1B, approximation should be good but it doesn't work. For example, GPT3 inference flops is actually 3.4E+18 so the ratio is 19,000 not 2.
