The reason is that the Pathways paper (Pathways: Asynchronous Distributed Dataflow for ML) is too technical, while the paper (PaLM: Scaling Language Modeling with Pathways) discusses the application of this architecture into the actual Language Model. The applied paper is good for discussion and has a lot of interesting information. However, after seeing that my article is now 15 minutes long, I decided to split these two into 1 paper per review.
