The discussion revolves around the potential of implementing Transformers without the normalization techniques typically used in large language models (LLMs). The commenters highlight that while this approach may not significantly enhance model capabilities, it offers computational advantages, making training faster and more economical. There are concerns about the implications of removing normalization, as it typically addresses network conditioning issues. The conversation hints at a shift towards energy-based models as a possible future direction for machine learning. Commenters express optimism about exploring new alternatives and methods in this area, reflecting growing interest and innovation in model architecture.
