Shared topic

Scaling laws, LLM training dynamics

3 sources

One of the clearest anchors for understanding why scaling laws became such a central planning tool for frontier-model research and training strategy.

Shared topic

NLP systems and evaluation

4 sources

A strong person to follow for practical language systems because his work sits right at the intersection of pretraining, retrieval, and question answering, where product-grade NLP systems either become robust or fall apart.
