Visualization of GPT-4o breaking away from the quality & speed trade-off curve the LLMs have followed thus far โ๏ธ
Key GPT-4o takeaways โฃ GPT-4o not only offers the highest quality, it also sits amongst the fastest LLMs โฃ For those with speed/latency-sensitive use cases, where previously Claude 3 Haiku or Mixtral 8x7b were leaders, GPT-4o is now a compelling option (though significantly more expensive) โฃ Previously Groq was the only provider to break from the curve using its own LPU chips. OpenAI has done it on Nvidia hardware (one can imagine the potential for GPT-4o on Groq)
๐ How did they do it? Will follow up with more analysis on this but potential approaches include a very large but sparse MoE model (similar to Snowflake's Arctic) and improvements in data quality (likely to have driven much of Llama 3's impressive quality relative to parameter count)
