UnverifiedTraining frontier large models requires enormous computational investment, and there are diminishing marginal returns as model scale increases.79% similarUnverifiedTraining and running large models requires enormous computing power and electricity, and the surge in energy demand from data centers creates tension with global carbon neutrality goals.77% similarUnverifiedExact unlearning achieves complete deletion by retraining the model after removing the target data, which is extremely costly for large models with billions of parameters, as a single complete training run may consume millions of dollars in computing resources.74% similarVerifiedThe energy consumption during the training phase of large models is approximately hundreds of times that of the inference phase.74% similarUnverifiedLarge models can be used to automatically generate synthetic training data based on domain documents to construct question-answer pairs, and typically thousands to tens of thousands of training pairs are needed to achieve significant results.74% similar
