We investigate the optimal model size and number of tokens for training a transformer language model under a given compute budget. We find that current large language models are significantly undertrained, a consequence of the recent focus on scaling language models whilst keeping the amount of training data constant. By training over 400 language models ranging from 70 million to over 16 billion parameters on 5 to 500 billion tokens, we find that for compute-optimal training, the model size ...| arXiv.org
GPUs accelerate machine learning operations by performing calculations in parallel. Many operations, especially those representable as matrix multipliers will see good acceleration right out of the box. Even better performance can be achieved by tweaking operation parameters to efficiently use GPU resources. The performance documents present the tips that we think are most widely useful.| NVIDIA Docs
