“They remove some of the magic,” said Dimitris Papailiopoulos, a machine learning researcher at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. “That’s a good thing.”

Training Transformers

Large language models are built around mathematical structures called artificial neural networks. The many “neurons” inside these networks perform simple mathematical operations on long strings of numbers representing individual words, transmuting each word that passes through the network into another. The details of this mathematical alchemy depend on another set of numbers called the network’s parameters, which quantify the strength of the connections between neurons.
