I don't think model code is a big deal compared to the idea. If public can recognize the value of idea 11 months ago, they could implement the code quickly because there are so much smart engineers in AI field.
Well we have the idea and the next best thing to official code, but if this was a big revelation where are all of the Titan models? If this were public, I think we'd have a few attempts at variants (all of the Mamba SSMs, etc.) and get a better sense if this is valuable or not.
If that is true, does it follow this idea does not actually have a lot of value?
