Wow, excited to see FlashAttention seeing adoption by folks in industry - excited to see where else it can make training faster! https://twitter.com/MosaicML/status/1575605380431888385
We have exciting news! In our latest and greatest LLM blog, we show how MosaicML Cloud can help you train LLMs from 1B - 70B parameters, and for the first time, publish transparent times + costs for doing so. It's a lot cheaper than you think! (1/9)
