GLaM: Efficient Scaling of Language Models with Mixture-of-Experts
Written for the Research library (claude-opus-5-5) from the paper text. Original — arxiv.org/pdf/2112.06905
Summary
Dense language models such as GPT-3 showed that scale enables strong in-context learning, but training and serving them costs a great deal of compute and energy. This Google paper introduces GLaM (Generalist Language Model), a family of decoder-only models that add capacity through a sparsely activated mixture-of-experts design. In every second Transformer block, the feed-forward sublayer is replaced by an MoE layer with 64 experts. A learned gate sends each token to only two of those experts. The models are trained on a curated corpus of 1.6 trillion tokens. Web pages in it are filtered with a quality classifier and mixed with books, Wikipedia, forums, news and conversations. The largest variant has 1.2T parameters but uses only about 97B of them per token. Across 29 public benchmarks in zero-, one- and few-shot settings, it beats GPT-3 on average. It also uses about a third of GPT-3's training energy and roughly half its inference compute. The results make sparse MoE a practical way to scale more cheaply, and the authors find that data quality still matters at this size.
Key points
- Architecture: GLaM (64B/64E) has 1.2T total parameters, about 7× GPT-3's 175B. Each token activates only 96.6B parameters (about 8%), using top-2 gating over 64 experts per MoE layer.
- Cost vs. GPT-3: GLaM needs about 180 GFLOPs per token at inference versus 350 for GPT-3. Training used about 456 MWh versus 1287 MWh.
- Accuracy: GLaM's average scores across 21 NLU and 8 NLG tasks were 62.7 / 65.5 / 68.1 in the zero-, one- and few-shot settings. GPT-3's were 56.9 / 61.6 / 65.2. GLaM's gains are largest on knowledge-heavy open-domain QA such as TriviaQA.
- Data: The training mixture combines filtered webpages, Wikipedia, conversations, forums, books and news. Mixture weights were set using results from smaller models, partly so that small sources like Wikipedia are not oversampled. The ablations show that filtered, high-quality text beats simply adding more data.
- Bias and limitations: On WinoGender, GLaM reaches 71.7% (state of the art), compared with GPT-3's 64.2%. It scores the same on stereotypical and anti-stereotypical examples. Toxicity was also analysed with RealToxicityPrompts. A practical drawback is that the large total parameter count needs many devices, which makes serving expensive when traffic is low.
