What the fuck is going on here

@ivanfioravanti What are you using for truncation parameters? Top p/k

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

Plenty more from the archives to come, plus a new paper every week. And yes, I take requests

Every week @scale_AI , I read and break down a recent, relevant, important ML paper for non-ML folks.

Starting today, I'm sharing them publicly, scrubbed of any private info.

Below is the first one from the archives, covering a strange , insightful paper from Apple.

@distributionat "L'enfer, c'est les autres"

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@ivanfioravanti Have you done any specdec/DFlash with Qwen3.5 397B? It's still my go-to model for my M3 Ultra 512 GB but it's so slow

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@peterwildeford The sexier way to frame it is "10x-ing every year"

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@peterwildeford Longer prompt could help more yes. Could also wire up Codex (or a different model in OpenCode) to give it feedback

@ivanfioravanti Downloading now!

@ivanfioravanti Why not a higher quant? You have the room. On the same machine I'm using Qwen3.5 397B at 8bit and wondering if there's a better option now

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@natolambert Still possible Meta will drop an open model

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@shreyasnsharma @Muennighoff 100%. In fact it would be strange *not* to see pass@k improvements at these values of k, as Yue et. al. also show.

You'd also need to show a graph of entropy imo if you want to disprove elicitation hypothesis

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@kalomaze Although there is a difference between "can recall this accurately" and "is currently salient"

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

Just saw my first LLM-generated typo in years. GPT-5.4 xhigh (in Codex) called some modules "high-lelevance"

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

What are we even doing here Claude

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@peterwildeford Once Nvidia releases Nemotron 3 Ultra I think it'll be worth tracking them. They're getting serious about commoditizing their complement

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@distributionat Fittingly, "the mother of all x" was popularized by... Saddam Hussein, to describe the impending Gulf War in 1991 https://t.co/7jG27HPkmQ

@weeklytreeman @kalomaze Maybe not a coincidence Opus 1M is available in CC

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@weeklytreeman @kalomaze Hit a certain conversation length periodically and then summarize. Maybe if the conversation is confusing or you have to make notes for third parties. But not in natural conversation, even over many hours

[Tim Dingman @TimDingmanLive]

@weeklytreeman @kalomaze Humans don't summarize like that. Claude has always been more human
