Train Models Faster with JAX and MaxText Using NVFP4 on NVIDIA Blackwell
Pre-training frontier LLMs comes down to throughput. When training spans trillions of tokens across thousands of accelerators, every percentage point of step time can add up to days of training and substantial compute costs. Numerical precision is one of the highest-leverage knobs available, but low- bit mixed-precision pretraining is hard to get right. To address this, the NVFP4 training recipe in TransformerEngine uses subbyte precision for JAX pretraining.
P-EAGLE: Faster LLM inference with Parallel Speculative Decoding in vLLM
2 hours ago We asked the Dark Sky guy what it takes to get the forecast right. Subscribe here: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Overcast | Pocket Casts How are we still getting caught in the rain? This week’s Galaxy Brain explores the world of weather forecasting—specifically the apps on our phones that we …

Pruning and Distilling LLMs Using NVIDIA TensorRT Model Optimizer
Large language models (LLMs) have set a high bar in natural language processing (NLP) tasks such as coding, reasoning, and math. However, their deployment remains resource-intensive, motivating a growing interest in small language models (SLMs) that offer strong performance at a fraction of the cost.
Will Ohtani Live Up To His Contract?
The average salary in America is about $60,000 a year. Shohei Ohtani’s yearly salary is 70 million. Shohei’s yearly salary is about 1,166 times more than the hardworking American citizen. Put it in perspective, imagine a hardworking father and mother trying to provide for their families and piece together and live off 120,000 a year. But Shohei Ohtani, who just plays baseball for the Dodgers, makes 1,166 times that. How and why did the Dodgers do this?
