What is the transformer paper

[–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Worst people you know pretend they read a math paper from 10 years ago, and it gives them deep understanding of all the complex problems you can imagine. It's hard to overstate how much this one paper fried their brains. It's even harder to overstate how it's actually just one paper about computer math
