Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) consistently struggle with fine-grained visual counting, yet the underlying causes remain poorly understood. In this work, we present a mechanistic analysis of this failure mode, identifying two critical bottlenecks inherent to the global attention pipeline of MLLMs. First, we r …
BF16 is now standard in large-scale pretraining, including in fused attention kernels such as FlashAttention, and these kernels are widely trusted. When we used FlashAttention-3 to pretrain a 450M-parameter transformer on 50B tokens, however, we ran into a problem: training was healthy for 25B tokens, then the gradient …
