Insight
Penn: Scaling loss is smooth, but AI capabilities emerge discontinuously
“As you add in more compute and data, what's called loss, aka the loss from next token prediction goes down. And so it's a very smooth linear curve of, like, the models get more intelligent as you scale them up. What's actually also interesting in that paper is…”
