I personally think they did great. They targeted the blog post at a more general audience so most people can follow and get an overhead view of the idea, and then put two giant buttons for "View code" and "Read paper" right at the top of the blog post for those who want more technical writing and working code.
- nitrogen 10y agoAgreeed. As a non-ML developer, I think this is the paragraph that sells the work, even if it may be an oversimplification: We were very surprised that our model learned an interpretable feature, and that simply predicting the next character in Amazon reviews resulted in discovering the concept of sentiment. We believe the phenomenon is not specific to our model, but is instead a general property of certain large neural networks that are trained to predict the next step or dimension in their inputs I think it says something very interesting about human language and information processing in general.
