A neural network design where a router sends each input token to a small subset of expert subnetworks, instead of activating the full model. Mixture of experts trades a larger total parameter count for sparser activation, which keeps inference cost manageable. Several frontier language models use MoE to scale capacity without scaling cost linearly.
MoE is now a common architecture for frontier models. Understanding what changes during inference, training, and evaluation when a model is sparse versus dense is a useful conversation for AI engineering and ML infrastructure roles.
