🧵New paper: "Lost in Backpropagation: The LM Head is a Gradient Bottleneck" The output layer of LLMs destroys 95-99% of your training signal during backpropagation, and this significantly slows down pretraining 👇

I have strong moral conflicts regarding my use of LLMs and cloud services. And that triggers an important question. Is there any list out there of AI/Cloud companies involved in current wars of aggression?

Announcing the release of the official Common Corpus paper: a 20 page report detailing how we collected, processed and published 2 trillion tokens of reusable data for LLM pretraining arxiv.org/pdf/2506.01732

ICML found hidden prompts in accepted papers. They have released a statement icml.cc/Conferences/... Yes, it’s unacceptable. So is using an LLM to review a paper. Peer review is so broken.
