Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) is an optimization technique designed to accelerate the text generation speed of Large Language Models (LLMs). Instead of generating tokens one by one, MTP allows models to predict several tokens ahead in a single pass. If these predictions are correct, multiple tokens are confirmed simultaneously, significantly speeding up output. This method is analogous to speculative execution in CPUs and is currently supported by models like Qwen and Gemma, though with different implementation approaches. AI
