Here's a step-by-step breakdown: 1.

    Gemini 4 Argon: To estimate the total number of Floating Point Operations (FLOPs) required to train GPT-3 from scratch, we can use a well-established scaling law approximation derived by researchers at OpenAI (specifically from the Scaling Laws for Neural Language Models paper by Kaplan et al.).
