I would be halfway willing to bet that some genius asked ChatGPT "please provide me with a list of URLs where my book is being illegally shared", or something similar, and then started firing off emails.

I think the actual measure of it will be a system which has the ability to accept or reject new information, and which possesses something approximating a will to act upon the information it has incorporated. As impressive as GPTs are,

For what it's worth, my local Wizard-7B model (4-bit quantized) can get the right answer, too. My transcript: --- Common sense questions and answers Question: Here we have a book, 9 eggs, a laptop, a bottle and a nail. Please tell me h

I disagree; Zelda games have always been a major draw for Nintendo audiences. Link to the Past was the best-selling game of 1991; Link's Awakening - released in 1993 on the Gameboy - was a defining game for Nintendo at the time and was

It's genuinely impressive to me that in a day when AAA games tend to weigh in at 100GB+, TOTK is only 18GB. Nintendo has done something genuinely impressive both technologically and in terms of game design.

I agree. Every talk on "AI safety" I've heard given has essentially been some form of "we can be trusted with this power, but someone else might not be, so we should add regulations to ensure that we're the only one

If you're getting stuck in a sampling loop, try raising the temperature (0.6+) and/or increasing the repetition penalty (1.1-1.2 often work well).

This has been around for GPT models for a while in the form of "soft prompts", which are rather approximate to textual inversion in the Stable Diffusion space.

"Alignment" is just a euphemism for "agrees with me", though. Humans aren't even aligned with each other. Demanding that AI models be "aligned" is essentially a demand that AI only be produced which agrees

I somewhat doubt this because transformers by their nature rely on attention to prior tokens to derive their outputs. Removing tokens from the context fundamentally changes the function output. There might be gains to be had in understandin

The gnarly thing is that common dictionary words are usually 1 or 2 tokens (a whole word, or a stem + a suffix), while things like emojis end up as _3_ tokens. https://platform.openai.com/tokenizer The string "The GPT

Someone has to. The "humanity designed tech that it became reliant on and forgot how to reimplement, so when it broke down nobody could fix it" is a recurring scifi trope.

In humans, though, there's a degree of matching between knowledge of a topic and ability to speak on that topic, which can betray the uninformed. People often speak on a topic too coarsely (in a way that betrays their lack of understan

I'm inclined to agree with your assessment, given the existence of the concept of Gell-Mann amnesia at all. That said, I think we might have a glimmer of a chance to escape the executioner's axe here, as it were, because while a p

You can describe what the input and output of a function should be, but unless you can describe the mechanism by which one turns into the other, you aren't communicating what code does. This is the disconnect between programmers and no

I eagerly await the "GPT is all you need for the customer" articles. Why bother building a product for real customers when you can just build a product for an LLM to pretend it's paying you for?

This is what I've referred to in other contexts as the "Photoshop strategy". Literally everyone I knew growing up had pirated copies of Photoshop, but they wouldn't have used it without first pirating it, and they all
