Is mamba-trwnsformer hybrid transformer like? Falcon H1 is an example of such architecture.

@ProjectVictory does it use some kind of attention mechanism?

What constitutes Transformer-like?

Is it all, or some, of these?

  • Token inputs, token outputs

  • Positional encoding

  • (MH QKV SDPA -> MLP) layers

  • Residual connections

@JaundicedBaboon Let's see if it can leave the academia limbo where the Mamba's got stuck...

@MalachiteEagle Transformers, yes. Attention, not really:

followed by two shared attention blocks.

It even links the wager page in its bragging points:

All while being an “Attention-Free Transformer”

I thought this wager was made today haha

Does this strictly resolve to the outcome of the bet?

@FranekZak Yep. Whatever details they come up with are in.
