Google systems engineers deployed GShard, a module that utilized Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) routing and conditional computation to scale Sparsely-Gated Transformer architectures to 600 billion parameters. This framework demonstrated that sparse models could maximize algorithmic capacity while utilizing a fraction of the compute required by dense networks.
