Rumor is that in the last few days Sama and Dario were calling for a slowdown in AI because there was some the parameter to tweak to scale AI models that scales similar to number of weights, amount of training data and compute. This would be huge, these “big 3” scaling parameters were untouched since basically the beginning of AI decades ago?

Anon leaker explains the real context behind the recent pivot to "pacing the frontier", as well as sudden indifference to the race with Chyna:
«New scaling axis found that scales very easy»
«This new scaling axis is something that China can inherently not do»
