   I don't "see", as in, it does not start feeling like my closed eyes are sending signals of an elephant or some residual image of it. However, I am able to "visualize" an elephant in outline and some detail within t

   Sure ideas and facts would be spread out. The weights are cumulatively involved in generating the tokens. The error margins from them would also be accumulating for some paths while also decaying for some others. If the training and infe

    I somehow do not think the 'hallucination' (or confabulation) problem, as defined by common people should be theoretically hard to solve. It may need a lot more computations though. We start with quasi-random initialization of ne

    I understand. I would like to train smaller proof-of-concept models on my laptop, which could build upon large pre-trained models though. Thanks.

    Love this. Am wondering how well this will work on Windows. Likewise for the pretrained models on my personal laptop (i7, 32GB RAM, RTX 2060 6GB).

    Is there a reasonable level of confidence that this would work. Asking as a two-month holiday is significant.

    The test I was given is called DIVA 2.0. It says it is based on DSM-IV criteria. I have no understanding of how DSM criteria evolved. The DIVA 2.0 test notes, "Research has indicated that at adult age, four or more characteristics of
