By
Will Douglas Heaven
Summary
Subquadratic, a startup, claims to have developed a new LLM called SubQ that is faster, cheaper, and more energy-efficient than existing models. The company says SubQ can process up to 12 times more text at once than most models, enabling data-heavy tasks like analyzing hundreds of documents or entire code bases, while matching the performance of leading models from Google DeepMind, OpenAI, and others. However, skepticism remains as the company has only recently shared more details about its claims.
