  • A Fermi estimate with the reasoning shown, not just the number.

    GPT-4.5: Let's estimate the total number of floating-point operations (FLOPs) required to train GPT-3 step by step, using reasonable assumptions and approximations: Step 1: Identify GPT-3 Parameters and Training Setup GPT-3 has approximately (175 \text{ billion}) parameters.

    Qwen3.8 2.4T A95B: A reasonable estimate is: [ \boxed{\sim 3 \times 10^{23} \text{ FLOPs}} ] More specifically, about: [ \boxed{3.1 \times 10^{23} \text{ FLOPs}} ] for the main GPT-3 175B training run.
