"I think we may actually agree that scaling laws can be handy in a frontier lab predicting next run dynamics. However more frequently scaling laws are thrown into public discourse as a truth ball to predict wider trend dynamics with compute over time. Many papers on scaling also motivate their work as being predictive of wider trends (which is completely removed from the next run scenario). This makes it even more important to point out the limits of scaling laws and the misuse in this setting since this public discourse has also frankly dominated decisions about organization of our field (how"

"I completely agree with the view pretraining gains compound but a lot of the innovation is around using capacity in a more meaningful way not scaling in a meaningful way. Its kind of like a cruise ship every year there is a slightly bigger cruise ship but physics dictates the maximum size. The limits are known. However if we invent a new material all bets are off. All the innovation over the last year is a slightly bigger cruise ship and someone saying it has a new water slide. In the same vein we havent invented a new material that would change the actual ceiling of scaling training compute."
