Deep dive: Llama3 from scratch, LinearBoost, LoRA Learns and Forgets Less

In this post, we’ll explore three groundbreaking advancements that are pushing the boundaries of AI and machine learning. First, dive into the intricacies of LLaMa 3, implemented from scratch in Python, where every aspect, from attention mechanisms to tokenization, is meticulously explained, making it a must-see for anyone interested in model architecture. Next, discover how LinearBoost, a new linear classifier-based algorithm, outperforms traditional GBDTs like CatBoost and XGBoost, showcasing superior accuracy and response time across five benchmark datasets. Lastly, we’ll delve into the debate on Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) in fine-tuning large language models, revealing why LoRA might not match full fine-tuning in specialized domains but offers remarkable regularization benefits. These insights are not only educational but also essential for staying at the forefront of AI research and application.

Inference-Time Scaling vs training compute

We’re seeing a new paradigm where scaling during inference takes the lead, shifting focus from training huge models to smarter, more efficient reasoning. As Sutton said in the Bitter Lesson, scaling compute boils down to learning and search—and now it’s time to prioritize search.

The power of running multiple strategies, like Monte Carlo Tree Search, shows that smaller models can still achieve breakthrough performance by leveraging inference compute rather than just packing in more parameters. The trade-off? Latency and compute power—but the rewards are clear.
