DeepSpeed powers 8x larger MoE model training with high performance
Today, we are proud to announce DeepSpeed MoE, a high-performance system that supports massive scale mixture of experts (MoE) models as part of the DeepSpeed optimization library. MoE models are an emerging class of sparsely activated models that have sublinear compute costs with respect to their parameters. For example, the Switch Transformer consists of 1.6 trillion parameters, while the compute required to train it is approximately equal to that of a 10 billion-parameter dense model. This increase in model size […]
