Title: q0: Primitives for Hyper-Epoch Pretraining

Abstract:
arXiv:2606.03938v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-epoch training is becoming the standard now that compute is growing faster than the supply of high-quality text. But pretraining a single model saturates within a few passes, long before the compute budget is exhausted. We argue this calls for a conceptual shift from training a single model toward exploring a population of models and aggregating their predictions. We introduce hyper-epoch pretraining (q0), which turns a multi-epoch budget i
