Predicting Performance Improvement from Model Scaling
A research lab's language models follow the power-law relationship , where L is the test loss and N is the number of parameters. If they increase the number of parameters in their next model by a factor of 100, what is the expected percentage decrease in the test loss? Show your calculation.

A research team plots the test loss versus the number of parameters for a series of language models on a log-log scale. They observe that the data points form a nearly perfect straight, downward-sloping line, indicating a predictable power-law relationship. However, their newest, largest model has a test loss that falls significantly above this established trend line. Which of the following is the most plausible explanation for this deviation?
