Researchers have developed a novel method for fine-tuning transformer language models to handle long contexts using sparse attention. This technique allows models to adapt to specific KV cache policies, often surpassing models trained with exact attention. The method requires moderate hardware, such as a single Nvidia A100 GPU, and is supported by the new open-source library KeysAndValues, which provides efficient implementations for long-context inference and fine-tuning.
