Multiple times per day if they're not incompetent. And I don't think they're incompetent.



Are you implying that removing the diff between checkpoints achieves the same effect? Ive never heard of this, but I suppose it may be possible.

I suppose the "ghost" of the removed weights would also have shaped subsequent training though...

Interesting idea...
