 **Limitations**: uses 2x more memory (but fp16 offsets that), and doesn’t support dilation and autoregressive attention (not needed for finetuning)
 
-therefore, it is suitable for finetuning on downstream tasks but not a good choice for language modeling. The code snippit below and the TriviaQA scripts were updated to use this new implementation.
