All we need now is affordable hardware with the memory to store that much context.
I heard some people use adaptive kv streaming to fit large contexts. Unfortunately, it's not merged into the upstream yet.
That sounds very interesting. If it performs well it could solve many problems.
Improving llm under the hood can end up producing it on the same hardware too.
Fantastic news. My only gripe with 3.8 is that 262k is very limiting with all the reasoning the model does.
Pi ends up compacting history 3-4 times for larger tasks before it finishes.
So they didn't even start training it?
They most likely used a local fork for a while.
If that were the case wouldn't they just merge the working local fork rather than merging and reviewing changes one by one?
I assume it's to simplify the review process. Or to generate more hype. Or both.
They announced that it would be released next week, so I doubt they've only just started training it.
Yes. Also less risky. This PR might be bait for us to look at

Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.
Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.
As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.
Rules:
Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.
Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.
Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.
Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.
