We are super happy about this milestone - a great validation for our three-year-long project Polybot that we are on the right track towards a future in farming automation that can scale up novel regenerative farming practices!

New preprint out! 🎉 How does LLM training loss translate to downstream performance? We show that pretraining data and tokenizer shape loss-to-loss scaling, while architecture and other factors play a surprisingly minor role! brendel-group.github.io/llm-line/ 🧵1/8

Does anyone know how OpenAI gets o3-mini to exceed 700 tokens/sec? I’ve only seen such speeds on specialized chips from @cerebrassystems.bsky.social, @sambanova.bsky.social, or @groq.com—but not on standard Nvidia GPUs, which I assumed power OpenAI’s inference.
