The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Reasoning Distillation: using DeepSeek R1 to beat OpenAI o1
Latent Space
A training technique where a smaller model learns from the outputs (logits or generated data) of a larger, more capable 'teacher' model.

The 10 Trillion Parameter AI Model With 300 IQ
Y Combinator
The process of using larger AI models as 'teacher' models to train smaller, more efficient 'student' models.

Inference, Diffusion, World Models, and More | YC Paper Club
Y Combinator
A method to transfer knowledge from a larger model or ensemble to a smaller model, reducing inference compute.

Stanford CME296 Diffusion & Large Vision Models | Spring 2026 | Lecture 8 - Trending Topics
Stanford Online
A category of methods aimed at shortening the number of inference steps needed to generate samples from a model, thereby reducing generation time and computational cost.

One Chinese AI Model Wiped Out $1 Trillion In A Single Day — And They're Just Getting Started
Tom Bilyeu
A technique where smaller AI models are trained on the outputs of larger, frontier models to create cheaper, efficient alternatives, but potentially used illegally by China to undermine US AI companies.
