The curator’s take
proposes an implementation that eliminates matrix multiplication operations from LLMs while maintaining performance at billion-parameter scales; the performance between full precision Transformers and the MatMul-free models narrows as the model size increases; claims that by using an optimized kernel during inference, memory consumption is reduced by more than 10x.
