Chapter 281: Chapter 216: Stepping on the Landmines First

Thinking of this, Chen Lin opened WeChat on his computer, found Bai Qian’s contact, and sent him the document he had just organized.

Chen Lin: [Dr. Bai, I’ve finished putting together the complete mathematical derivation and algorithm proposal for the new architecture. I just sent you the document. Please take a look.]

He received a reply just a few seconds later.

Bai Qian: [Got it! President Chen, I’ll look at it right away!]

Chen Lin smiled. He didn’t reply, instead standing up and walking over to the break room to make himself a cup of coffee.

Returning to his desk with the coffee, he opened his browser and started scrolling through the news.

The tech world, both at home and abroad, had been in an absolute uproar recently because of the JAMS paper he had published.

Countless AI companies and research institutions were frantically trying to incorporate the algorithm he proposed into their own model training workflows.

And judging from the various technical discussions and experimental reports online, the results were indeed remarkable.

Model hallucination rates had generally fallen by 60% to 80%.

This was, without a doubt, a revolutionary step forward for the entire AI industry.

Meanwhile, the valuations and market positions of AI giants that had previously relied on their technological moats to turn a profit, such as CloseAI and XAI, began to plummet.

Conversely, tech giants that were previously a bit behind technologically but had deep pockets and large user bases—like Giant Hard, Amazon, and Apple—saw their model performance rapidly catch up to and even surpass CloseAI after implementing Chen Lin’s algorithm. Their stock prices soared as a result.

The entire landscape of the AI industry was being radically reshaped at an unprecedented speed.

And the catalyst for it all was Chen Lin’s open-source paper.

Chen Lin watched the heated discussions online, feeling quite calm.

’This is how technological progress is supposed to be.’

’Openness, sharing, and iteration.’

’If everyone hoarded their research, terrified of others learning from it, how could human civilization ever advance?’

With that thought, Chen Lin closed his browser and turned his attention back to work.

’The AI project has only just begun. It’s time to pour everything into it.’

Chen Lin glanced at the company’s financial statements, which Huang Yiyi had sent him.

The account balance was still over three million, enough to cover the company’s expenses for the next several months.

What’s more, Little Financial Planner had generated over thirty million in income for him last month.

Money was not a concern at all.

Chen Lin closed the financial statements with satisfaction. Just as he was about to look at something else, a loud, excited shout suddenly erupted from the office area.

"HOLY SHIT!!!"

Startled, Chen Lin looked toward the source of the sound.

Bai Qian had leaped up from his chair, his face flushed bright red and his eyes gleaming with a wild, fanatical light.

He held his tablet up, looking as if he’d just witnessed something unbelievable, and was in a state of extreme excitement.

"President Chen! President Chen!"

Bai Qian rushed over to Chen Lin in a few quick strides, his voice trembling slightly.

"This algorithm of yours... this architecture... it’s... it’s just so fucking brilliant!"

Chen Lin was amused by his reaction. "What is it? Is it really that dramatic?"

"Dramatic? This is beyond dramatic!"

Bai Qian took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, but he couldn’t hide the profound, heartfelt shock in his voice.

"President Chen, I just read the document you sent me from start to finish."

"I have to say, from a mathematical standpoint, this new architecture of yours is far more elegant than the existing attention mechanism!"

As he spoke, Bai Qian handed the tablet to Chen Lin and pointed to a formula on the screen.

"Look here—this ’adaptive weight distribution function’ you introduced can dynamically adjust the weight ratio between local attention and global linear recursion based on the actual features of the input sequence."

Bai Qian’s eyes grew brighter and brighter.

"This means the model can automatically find the optimal computational strategy for different task scenarios!"

"When processing short text, it can lean more on local attention to ensure precision; for long text, it can use more linear recursion to reduce complexity!"

"And this transition is smooth and continuous! There’s none of the clunky, stitched-together feeling you get with traditional hybrid architectures!"

At this point, Bai Qian was so excited he was becoming almost incoherent.

"And here! In the derivation, you introduced an ’information entropy regularization term.’ It can theoretically guarantee that the model won’t lose critical information, even while reducing computational complexity!"

"This... this is an absolute stroke of genius!"

Chen Lin felt a sense of happiness as he listened to Bai Qian’s impassioned, non-stop analysis.

’Although, for him, all of this was just the solution process automatically generated by Little Mathematician.’

’Still, getting approval from an expert of Bai Qian’s caliber proved that his hard work over the past month hadn’t been for nothing.’

"Dr. Bai, since you’ve finished the document, should we start discussing the validation process?" Chen Lin asked with a smile.

"Yes, absolutely!" Bai Qian nodded immediately. "President Chen, I was already starting to map out a validation plan in my head while I was reading."

He pulled out his notebook and quickly flipped to a page that was already covered in densely scrawled plans.

"Here’s what I’m thinking."

Bai Qian pointed at the notes and began to explain in detail.

"First, we can’t just jump straight into training a massive model with tens of billions of parameters. If something goes wrong, it’ll be incredibly difficult to debug, and the cost of the wasted compute power will be extremely high."

"So, I suggest we start by validating with a smaller model."

"Specifically, we’ll build a 1.5-billion-parameter mini-model and use it to run through the entire training workflow."

Bai Qian paused for a moment before continuing.

"During the training process, we can benchmark the model trained on the new architecture against some of the current mainstream open-source models."

"For instance, we can use Meta’s open-source Llama series or ALBB’s open-source Qwen series as a baseline."

"This comparative testing will give us a clear picture of how much of a performance boost the new architecture provides, while also helping us identify any potential issues with training and deployment."

"Once we’ve worked out all the kinks and have the workflow running smoothly, we can move up to a 30-billion-parameter mid-sized model."

"That’s when we can truly validate the new architecture’s real-world performance on a large-scale model."

Chen Lin listened to Bai Qian’s proposal and nodded in satisfaction.

"That’s a very sound approach. I agree."

Just then, Pan Si, who was sitting nearby and had overheard their conversation, walked over.

"Dr. Bai, President Chen," Pan Si said, adjusting his glasses with a smile. "I have some good news for you."
