🧠Researchers present Memory Sparse Attention (MSA), a new AI framework that enables language models to process up to 100 million tokens with linear complexity and less than 9% performance degradation. The technology addresses current limitations in long-term memory processing and can run 100M-token inference on just 2 GPUs, potentially revolutionizing applications like large-corpus analysis and long-history reasoning.

🧠Researchers introduce CSAttention, a training-free sparse attention method that accelerates LLM inference by 4.6x for long-context applications. The technique optimizes the offline-prefill/online-decode workflow by precomputing query-centric lookup tables, enabling faster token generation without sacrificing accuracy even at 95% sparsity levels.
