Sliding-window beats linear attention

Mirrored from r/LocalLLaMA for archival readability. Support the source by reading on the original site.

Interesting new paper from Alexia Jolicoeur-Martineau (of Tiny Recursive Model fame) and collaborators. They seem to be able to replace quadratic attention with sliding window attention + attention sinks and no post training. This could be big for memory constrained local LLM inference.

EDIT: Fixed the link to the paper
