Announcing the launch of Psyche https://t.co/ltj3hlHwVA Nous Research is democratizing the development of Artificial Intelligence. Today, we’re embarking on our greatest effort to date to make that mission a reality: The Psyche Network Psyche is a decentralized training network that makes it possible to bring the world’s compute together to train powerful AI, giving individuals and small communities access to the resources required to create new, interesting, and unique large scale models. We are launching our testnet today with the pre-training of a 40B parameter LLM, a model powerful enough to serve as a foundation for future pursuits in open science. This run represents the largest pre-training run conducted over the internet to date, surpassing previous iterations that trained smaller models on much fewer data tokens.
