It distilled the vast, chaotic web of internet pages into an ordered hierarchy, much like an organized library that saves visitors from an overwhelming deluge of information. PageRank's intuition lay in its selective use of sparse connections, paying attention to the most critical links between individual webpages and mostly ignoring the rest. This discerning focus on critical connections amidst a sea of information echoes once again in the world of Large Language Models (LLMs). Sparsity advocates for a more selective model training approach that can alleviate computational demands and facilitate easier model deployment, offering an alternative to today’s massive models. By embracing sparsity, we're not only refining our models; we're affirming a fundamental principle res
