Doubleword AI is conducting a classic textbook marketing trick called newsjacking.
Writing a detailed technical post behind the news of Kimi K3 and KDA algorithm with an audacious title like "You Could Have Invent Breakthrough It too" they are pre-filtering out the ones who couldn't comprehend with quick read (myself included) and attracting the ones who agreed with the blog post. At the end with a strong CTA to promoting their 10x cheapter open weight model AI inference and hiring too.
Good job Doubleword, I see what you are doing there.
I don't even know most words they used in the paper haha
Yeah, pretty sure the “you” in “you could have” is a different “you” than “we”.
The notation looks complex, but underneath it's all just adding and multiplying.
Nothing complex
* a completely different "you" who spent countless hours gaining expertise on a wholly diverged life path
Imagine reading the title again in the voice of the Asian Father Meme.
"You could have come up with Kimi Delta Attention, but you didn't, did you."
Not even close for me too.
"you could have..." is among the top insulting phrases used by maths-adjacent people. Others in that league are "it should now be obvious...", "it's abundantly clear...", "it can be easily shown that...", "this is nothing but..." etc.
The rest of us reading this are like, holy batman, what the fuck was that?!
