Daj#7482: Yeeees oh God star that's the kind of shit I've been annoying my friends about for years star#5322: yeah this is the sort of thing that's kind of in that weird zone where it's hard to tell if something is very important or very not important star#5322: I think probably all it is is that a relatively weak frag...
Daj#7482: I try, please excuse my low IQ philosopher brain Louis#0144: but Im not convinced HoTT will make a difference with the kinds of computation we do here star#5322: me neither, but my book gets here tomorrow so maybe I'll get to it bmk#1476: What *is* HoTT about anyways bmk#1476: Aren't types like discrete thing...
star#5322: @bmk I know about zero homotopy, so I really don't know how to bring that part in. But two points: 1) not sure what you mean by "types are discrete things" - the natural numbers is an example of a type, which is discrete, and the real numbers is another example of a type, which is not discrete 2) the core re...

Louis#0144: tbh Im really ADHD but munkres is just..... so good bmk#1476: I'm halfway through several dozen books star#5322: but I do know a lot about type theory, so I expect to get something from at least some of HoTT @Louis like, I'm not going to read the whole...
Daj#7482: I hope you can translate some of the insights of HoTT for me star! Hah Louis#0144: I mean ok you can go with only the second munkres but I would strongly recommend atleast reading up to like the end of compact spaces in the first one (I think its like page 120 or so) Louis#0144: THatll make your life way easi...

AI_WAIFU#2844: Your language model will only be as good as the text you feed in, even in the limit of infinite compute. AI_WAIFU#2844: You'd need another objective to improve quality beyond that point. Ravna#1831: Yeah but a lot of formatting boilerplates like HTML or forum code might help. Ravna#1831: A lot of prompts...
Daj#7482: I don't think any large model, maybe even _any_ model, has ever reached true convergence over a (potentially infinite) real world training distribution Daj#7482: So whether something reaches acceptable quality _in practice_ matters a lot kindiana#1016: yeah, there is a trend of super large, weakly labeled dat...

AI_WAIFU#2844: I think we've got different definitions of random. Daj#7482: For me random = incompressible AI_WAIFU#2844: Right, rule 30 output is super compressible. AI_WAIFU#2844: rule30 output is not random. Daj#7482: Yea, _but so is nothing else then_ Daj#7482: That's my point AI_WAIFU#2844: I don't follow Daj#7482...
Daj#7482: Random functions might exist, but you can't _prove_ it Daj#7482: Even with infinite compute AI_WAIFU#2844: Agreed on all points.

AI_WAIFU#2844: I change my previous statement. I can't provide bayesian evidence that the string you gave me was output by rule 30. I can provide evidence that it is not random.

Ravna#1831: You actually have much more at hand to work on than GPT's unsupervised learning. Ravna#1831: But it's still harder, or maybe... just comparably un-explored with high-compute?

bmk#1476: tldr it needs to get grammar good before it can be logically good AI_WAIFU#2844: Small models will pick the low hanging fruit. AI_WAIFU#2844: So we would expect the curve to get steeper as the model gets bigger because it will better take advantage of longer contexts, which are higher up in the "tree" of the ...
AI_WAIFU#2844: anything with large coherent documents should work. bmk#1476: fun protip: i have a lib that lets you easily get wt AI_WAIFU#2844: Small documents won't demonstrate the effect bmk#1476: ah wt docs are usually pretty short AI_WAIFU#2844: Do crime and punishment AI_WAIFU#2844: or moby dick AI_WAIFU#2844: ma...

AI_WAIFU#2844: probably the output of GPT-1 vs gpt-2 AI_WAIFU#2844: change the -= to += bmk#1476: o.O bmk#1476: how are they different? bmk#1476: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/729741769738158194/742427053638287391/unknown.png bmk#1476: ok this *really* does not look right bmk#1476: why is loss way down in the...

AI_WAIFU#2844: 🤷 AI_WAIFU#2844: I think its just that in the GPT-1 arch the inputs don't affect the corresponding outputs while for GPT-2 they do, so you have to shift by one to use it as an autoregressive LM bmk#1476: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/729741769738158194/742567868876456016/gpt2-117M-losspos.png ...
Teqnicolor#8109: @StellaAthena It is Louis#0144: Oh it is I think Louis#0144: @Daj said the name is a Greek pun Louis#0144: But I don’t remember what specifically bmk#1476: yup that's right bmk#1476: so yeah any input for the copyleft idea would be nice bmk#1476: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/7297417697381581...
StellaAthena#3530: How about you catch me up on what you guys have already been thinking so I don’t 1) come totally out of left field to tell you how to do things and 2) don’t rehash things that have already been discussed bmk#1476: well uh bmk#1476: so we're pretty sure we want to release the model bmk#1476: i.e not g...
bmk#1476: interesting bmk#1476: so youd have to be able to tell if the output was generated by a model with a contract StellaAthena#3530: It makes you able to verify the claim “I did X with the model, and I did it in a good way” StellaAthena#3530: Separately, @Louis mentioned that you were interested in detecting when ...
Louis#0144: The model stops working entirely bmk#1476: o.O bmk#1476: but.. how?? Louis#0144: Idk Louis#0144: Tbh Louis#0144: Lmao bmk#1476: wat Louis#0144: I haven’t gone in depth with this stuff Louis#0144: Tbf bmk#1476: so you can take a model, add some kind of imperceptible bias that doesnt hurt performance too much...
StellaAthena#3530: Thirdly, to defeat the “high effort” hacker, given a word embedding w and a set of word embeddings S you can estimate how much data is needed to finetune w until it is in S. Working backwards, this may allow us to determine that a given radioactive word embedding is sufficiently far from a “naturally...
Daj#7482: Yup absolutely, I see this as one half "interesting experiment maybe" and one half "why not?", not as an actual strategy to effectively prevent abuse Daj#7482: Though I'm definitely down for experimenting with those tracer methods for enforcement StellaAthena#3530: I view these limitations as a motivation for...
StellaAthena#3530: I agree 🙂 StellaAthena#3530: > Anyways, I would love to cooperate on trying this out, though you're obviously the expert and would have to tell us what we can do to help @Daj Frankly, this is my ideal set up. I’m a mathematician, and I don’t let people call me a computer scientist unless they put t...
StellaAthena#3530: > Is this a project you would actually have the time/interest to commit to soonish? @Daj Yeah. I was specifically waiting for DEF CON to be over to join this chat for this exact reason 🙂 Daj#7482: and good anything really Daj#7482: Awesome Stella! Man here I am wanting to take a week off and too man...
Daj#7482: but if you want to verify on our precise code we'd probably have to use TPUs Aran Komatsuzaki#5714: Thanks. But it doesn't matter to me whether a topic needs math or not. What matters to me is whether it leads to AGI or not, which is why I'm doing this. Aran Komatsuzaki#5714: Just wanted to join the conversat...
Aran Komatsuzaki#5714: Thanks 🙂 Daj#7482: Mesh Tensorflow, Stella. I can invite you to the repo if you send me your github name Sid#2121: > GPT3 is the same architecture just more/bigger layers @Daj Not quite accurate, OA use sparse layers for their GPT3, we'll probably have to use some other technique eventually to c...
Daj#7482: Ah that's what I thought, just wanted to make sure Sid#2121: I'm having trouble seeing how this would transfer over to text, unless you had a large amount of the target's text outputs to analyze? Daj#7482: Sounds really great to me, I'm super excited Sid#2121: surely you couldn't detect the radioactivity from...
Sid#2121: I'm trying to figure out how you would then detect from raw text Sid#2121: or like, a certain misspelling would appear more often? StellaAthena#3530: Have you read any of the literature on implicit bias in text models? Sid#2121: nope StellaAthena#3530: So let’s think about word2vec for a second for conceptual...
Daj#7482: Intuitively, I feel this should work in a high enough dimensional space Daj#7482: And would be close to imperceptible bmk#1476: @AI_WAIFU results for 345M https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/729741769738158194/742765237681520780/gpt2-345M-losspos.png bmk#1476: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/729741...
