Albert & Karan joined us to talk state space models. They are the authors of the seminal S4 paper, Albert is the main author of thee Mamba paper - and together they're pioneering the SSM research and competing against transformer supremacy! :)
Recently they posted super cool demos demonstrating just how much more real-time these models are compared to the baselines.
