Hugging Face describes how Ulysses Sequence Parallelism can distribute long-context attention across multiple GPUs, making training on sequences far beyond single-GPU limits more practical. The post explains the approach and its integration into Accelerate, Transformers Trainer, and TRL's SFTTrainer, with comparisons to Ring Attention and guidance for large-sequence training.
