Meta has introduced a new method for enhancing Large Language Models (LLMs) named Branch-Train-MiX (BTX). This approach focuses on training expert LLMs in parallel across various domains such as math, code, and world knowledge, and then integrating these specialized models into a unified Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model. The BTX method aims to improve the efficiency and accuracy of LLMs by reducing the communication cost of MoE training, especially when scaled to extremely large sizes. The method has been detailed in a paper by S Sukhbaatar, O Golovneva, V Sharma, H Xu, and others from FAIR at Meta. It is noted for its potential to significantly enhance LLM capabilities by leveraging specialized skills, making it a notable advancement in the field of artificial intelligence.
Branch-Train-MiX This new work proposes mixing expert LLMs into a Mixture-of-Experts LLM as a more compute-efficient approach for training LLMs. It's shown to be more efficient than training a larger generalist LLM or several separate specialized LLMs. The approach, BTX,… https://t.co/yTfC6qNeHu
