March 28, 2026Sebastian Raschka

Sebastian Raschka surveys recent LLM design changes, emphasizing attention variants and context-handling techniques that differentiate newer language models and influence practical model selection and deployment.

A Visual Tour of Modern LLM Architectures
we look at what actually changed in recent LLM design, including grouped-query attention (GQA), sliding-window attention
models like DeepSeek, Qwen3-Next, Kimi, Sarvam, Ling 2.5, and Nemotron
