From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Lobsters, shortened. Read the full thread on Lobsters.
Wow, some real computer science! This makes me want to see a NN that's just a CPU now! And then maybe FPGA-ized, but of course, I imagine it'll be much slower, since we're describing some circuitry in less-direct ways? Anyone know anything more?
As much as I generally hate reading about LLM's, this is really fun!
