I'm sympathetic to the idea that training is fair use. I'm much less sympathetic to the "it's a bug" defense on regurgitation. Ultimately, if your system is reproducing copyrighted material, it seems like you'r

I'd be curious to see if, in the 1-2% of cases where the linear probe fails to predict board occupancy, the LLM also predicts (or at least assigns non-trivial probability to) a corresponding illegal move. For example, if the linear pro

This looks a lot more convincing to me than the Copilot lawsuit or the Sarah Silverman one. This suit shows ChatGPT reciting large amounts of NYT articles - not just little snippets of code or the ability to answer questions about Silverman

I disagree that the type of coding the LLM is doing here is "expert" level in any meaningful sense. Look for example at the code for the bin-packing heuristics: https://github.com/google-deepmind/funsearch

Critically, though, the LLM is not acting as a domain expert here. It's acting as a code mutator. The expertise it brings to the table is not mathematical - Codey doesn't have any special insight into bin packing heuristics. It&#x

I don't think five runs is sufficient to reach the conclusion you're reaching here, especially when we can see that one of the Codey runs is worse than all of the StarCoder runs. If Codey is so much more valuable, why is this happ

Do you think the role the LLM plays in this system is analogous to what Tao is talking about?

We can see from the ablations that simply asking the LLM to generate a large number of potential solutions without the evolutionary search performs terribly. It's certainly true that the LLM mutator produces more reasonable edits than

The heavy lifting here is done by the evolutionary algorithm. The LLM is just being asked "propose some reasonable edits to these 20 lines of python" to replace a random mutation operator. It feels generous to credit the neural ne

It really feels like the reason this is being released now and not months ago is that that's how long it took them to figure out the convoluted combination of different evaluation procedures to beat GPT-4 on the various benchmarks.

It feels like 10M is a fraction of what it would cost to train such a model. Even if we assume an eventual winner would be willing to release the model and forgo potential profits, does this prize really motivate development if it doesn

My guess is that "g" here is primarily the ability of the model to recognize and respond to multiple choice questions (the "performance" here is almost entirely measured on MMLU). Weaker models often do things like recit
