Multilinguality in Hybrid Attention LLMs
In response to the growing demand for long sequences in agentic and reasoning use cases, many state-of-the-art LLMs combine multiple variants of attention to mitigate the quadratic complexity of traditional softmax attention. These hybrid attention LLMs aim to balance the strengths and limitations of full attention and alternatives based on recurrence. This work presents a first study of how hybrid attention impacts the multilinguality of LLMs....
