I'll save my takes on Tinker's value vs other infra, but it is crazy how using distributed compute is now just taken for granted. Like 8mos ago I was speaking with VCs who couldn't wrap their baby brains around the value of being able to connect dispersed clusters. Now it's a
Introducing Tinker: a flexible API for fine-tuning language models. Write training loops in Python on your laptop; we'll run them on distributed GPUs. Private beta starts today. We can't wait to see what researchers and developers build with cutting-edge open models!
