Absence of a Universal Scaling Law

A research team is developing a new language model. They train several versions of the model, each with a different number of parameters, while keeping the training dataset size fixed. They plot the final training loss for each model version against its parameter count. The resulting graph shows a consistent, downward-curving trend: as the number of parameters increases, the loss decreases, but the amount of improvement gets smaller with each increase. Based on this observation, what is the most
