> Multiverse turned to a mathematically complex approach borrowed from quantum physics that uses networks of high-dimensional grids to represent and manipulate large data sets. Using these so-called tensor networks shrinks the size of the model significantly and allows a complex AI system to be expressed more efficiently.

> The method gives researchers a “map” of all the correlations in the model, allowing them to identify and remove specific bits of information with precision. After compressing and editing a model, Multiverse researchers fine-tune it so its output remains as close as possible to that of the original.

This seems to be the substance but I didn’t spot a link to a paper. Is there a technical explanation someplace?


I think this is the paper? Skimming through it now: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.14109

edit: it's really light on details. They have some graphs on reduction and a few (old) benchmarks where supposedly they don't lose much accuracy, but with such old models being listed, it's hard to know. More of a "promo pamphlet" than a paper tbh.


Is this really the right paper. It's from May 2024.


Why does this site attempt to force me to download some .htm file?
