Plasticity decay refers to the phenomenon where, as a model undergoes more and more fine-tuning updates, its weights gradually solidify and its ability to respond to new information continuously declines.

UnverifiedIn the weeks before a new model release, adjustments to computing power and capabilities often lead to performance degradation in existing models.76% similarUnverifiedThe core challenge of MLOps lies in model drift: as real-world data distributions change over time, model prediction accuracy gradually declines.72% similarUnverifiedResearch published in 2023, such as "The Curse of Recursion," shows that when models are repeatedly trained on their own generated data, the data distribution gradually degrades, diversity continuously decreases, and model capabilities systematically decline (model collapse).72% similarUnverifiedSmaller models often show exponential rather than linear degradation in performance on long reasoning chain tasks.72% similar
