The following covers questions related to various topics which are interesting or challenging when training large language models.

Deciding on a model architecture

Deciding on a model parallelism strategy

Deciding on the model size

Scaling laws

Trade-off of large language model sizes

Issues and questions related to tensor precision

What to chose between fp32, fp16, bf16

Mixed-precisions for optimizers, weights, specifics modules

How to finetune and integrate a model trained in a precision in another precision

Selecting training hyper-parameters and model initializations

Learning rate and learning rate schedules

Questions on batch size

Maximizing throughput

Avoiding, recovering from and understanding instabilities

Detecting instabilities early

Training tips to reduce instabilities
