Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

OpenAI chief goes before US Congress to propose licenses for building AI
There's no chance that we've peeked from a bang for buck sense - we still haven't adequately investigated sparse networks.
Relevantish: https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.00774
The fact that we can reach those levels of sparseness with pruning also indicates that we're not doing a very good job of generating the initial network conditions.
Being able to come up with trainable initial settings for sparse networks across different topologies is hard, but given that we've had a degree of success with pre-trained networks, pre-training and pre-pruning might also allow for sparse networks with minimally compromised learning capabilities.
If it's possible to pre-train composable network modules, it might also be feasible to define trainable sparse networks with significantly relaxed topological constraints.

How to run Llama 13B with a 6GB graphics card
Training uses gradient descent, so you want to have good precision during that process. But once you have the overall structure of the network, https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.17323 (GPTQ) showed that you can cut down the precision quite a bit without losing a lot of accuracy. It seems you can cut down further for larger models. For the 13B Llama-based ones, going below 5 bit per parameter is noticeably worse, but for 30B models you can do 4 bits.
The same group did another paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.00774 which shows that in addition to reducing the precision of each parameter, you can also prune out a bunch of parameters entirely. It's harder to apply this optimization because models are usually loaded into RAM densely, but I hope someone figures out how to do it for popular models.

Ask HN: Affordable hardware for running local large language models?
Yes, Metal seems to allow a maximum of 1/2 of the RAM for one process, and 3/4 of the RAM allocated to the GPU overall. There’s a kernel hack to fix it, but that comes with the usual system integrity caveats. https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/discussions/2182
