Visualizations reveal early layer GDN outputs are heavily read in later model stages

The post shares visualizations regarding N-gram embedding designs, noting an emerging pattern where embeddings overlap with early layer execution. The analysis highlights a trend similar to value-residuals, where information from early layers (specifically GDN outputs) appears to be critical and is frequently read by downstream layers.
