TimesFM (Time Series Foundation Model) for time-series forecasting

At the end of the day, if training or doing inference on the ML model is massively more costly in time or compute, you'll iterate much less with it.

I also think it's a dead end to try to have foundation models for "time series" - it's a class of data! Like when people tried to have foundation models for any general graph type.

You could make foundation models for data within that type - eg. meteorological time series, or social network graphs. But for the abstract class type it seems like a dead end.

These models may be helpful if they speed up convergence when fine tuned on business-specific time series.

so this TimesFM is also in the same category as TimeGPT from nixtlaverse?
