From: Do Mixture of Experts (MOE) Models Always Share Experts Across Layers?

How do you decide when to reuse knowledge and when to learn something new?

Just like MOE models choose whether to share experts or not, we face choices about applying what we already know versus seeking fresh ideas. Thinking about this can improve how you learn and solve problems.

Action

Next time you learn something new, pause and ask yourself: Can I apply what I already know here, or do I need a new approach?

Sharing experts across layers can save computational resources but may reduce model flexibility.

evidence

MOE models can have experts unique to each layer or shared across layers, depending on design.
