World News@lemmy.ml•NHS 10-day Covid warning as cases, deaths and hospitalisations surge
1·1 year agoWell shit. Is that just for long COVID? Do the majority of infections clear completely? Also isn’t part of the problem with AIDS that it will lay dormant inside of you for years after initial infection without any symptoms. Same with, like, TB. Is there any evidence that that happens with COVID?

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Quiblr: Quiblr is an intuitive, accessible, and modern interface to connect users to the fediverse.
2·1 year agoCurrently it’s just a Lemmy client. It’ll be cool to watch the development, but at present I don’t see how it’s any better than voyager. At least on mobile the interface has a lot more dead space than voyager.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is a good eli5 analogy for GenAI not "knowing" what they say?
13·2 years agoPeople sometimes act like the models can only reproduce their training data, which is what I’m saying is wrong. They do generalise.
During training the models are trained to predict the next word, but after training the network is always effectively interpolating between the training examples it has memorised. But this interpolation doesn’t happen in text space but in a very high dimensional abstract semantic representation space, a ‘concept space’.
Now imagine that you have memorised two paragraphs that occupy two points in concept space. And then you interpolate between them. This gives you a new point, potentially unseen during training, a new concept, that is in some ways analogous to the two paragraphs you memorised, but still fundamentally different, and potentially novel.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is a good eli5 analogy for GenAI not "knowing" what they say?
237·2 years agoNot an ELI5, sorry. I’m an AI PhD, and I want to push back against the premises a lil bit.
Why do you assume they don’t know? Like what do you mean by “know”? Are you taking about conscious subjective experience? or consistency of output? or an internal world model?
There’s lots of evidence to indicate they are not conscious, although they can exhibit theory of mind. Eg: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2308.08708.pdf
For consistency of output and internal world models, however, their is mounting evidence to suggest convergence on a shared representation of reality. Eg this paper published 2 days ago: https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.07987
The idea that these models are just stochastic parrots that only probabilisticly repeat their training data isn’t correct, although it is often repeated online for some reason.
A little evidence that comes to my mind is this paper showing models can understand rare English grammatical structures even if those structures are deliberately withheld during training: https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.19827

“These books live and die by their fanfiction. For the authors not to coordinate with the fanfic writers is a disgrace”
