Accelerating Long-Context Model Training in JAX and XLA

Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly expanding their context windows, with recent models supporting sequences of 128K tokens, 256K tokens, and beyond….

Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly expanding their context windows, with recent models supporting sequences of 128K tokens, 256K tokens, and beyond. However, training these models with extended context lengths presents significant computational and communication challenges. As context lengths grow, the memory and communication overhead of attention mechanisms scale quadratically…
