Scaling-law — Scaling Law

Fact

A rule showing AI often improves as models, data, and compute grow.

In Plain Words

Scaling law is AI’s gym-bro rule. Add more weights, snacks, and practice, and the bot usually gets stronger.

It is why labs buy huge computers and feed models more data. It works often, but a bigger bill does not always buy a wow moment.
