Mixture of Experts: Efficient Large Language Models Explained

The concept of Mixture of Experts (MoE) is explored as a method to create large language models that are computationally efficient. MoE architectures allow a model to selectively activate only a portion of its parameters for each input, significantly reducing the computational cost per token compared to dense models. This approach, exemplified by models like Google's Switch Transformers and potentially utilized in models such as GPT-4, enables the training and deployment of models with trillions of parameters without a proportional increase in computational expense. AI

IMPACT Enables the development of more powerful and efficient large language models by selectively activating parameters.
