Nobody will throw rocks, I think most people are curious/suspicious about the big players and wants more hands-on since we suspect that this all will come down in cost soon enough.
Seems interesting, I've been messing with a lot of continuous learning approaches lately and it's cool to see something that's built from the ground up for avoiding catastrophic forgetting. Worth a clone for sure
Is this architecture actually able to generalize or is it mostly based on memorization? Have you tried some basic tasks that require generalization? e.g. number addition etc?
The model is way too small and undertrained to make any generalization claims. I want to wait until it reads the whole corpus I gave and then test it on some simple established benchmarks to see how it will behave.
I also like how it is very organic. It naturally grows and deletes unused elements, so in addition to traditional backprop there is also a natural selection happening in the background. Each new expert has 16 parents by the way, lol.
nm, I found it:

Super impressive.
