Since transformers care only about relative angles you can process a cumulative sentence made of the sum of differently oriented source sentences and later unpack them. @VishvakM @_carlosejimenez @RunzheYang @narasimhankartz #NeurIPS22

We've become really good at taking big piles of data and operationalizing them into input -> output mappings that display skillfulness across any task you might want. But that's orthogonal to intelligence. Intelligence is the ability to efficiently adapt to new tasks.

Very excited to announce our #NeurIPS2022 paper No Free Lunch from Deep Learning in Neuroscience: A Case Study through Models of the Entorhinal-Hippocampal Circuit. It's a story about NeuroAI, told through a story about grid & place cells. Joint w/ @KhonaMikail @FieteGroup 1/15

New on arXiv: a mathematical note on how to do diffusion directly over categorical distributions ! Introducing Simplex Diffusion - if you've ever wondered how to replace masking noise with diffusion noise, that's how. https://t.co/Zb8pRtsg6Q

I'm increasingly of the opinion that we need to be VERY CAREFUL about what conclusions we draw in research that involves GPT-3 (even as a baseline). We don't really know all we need to know about how the different versions are trained. Many use instruct-like training methods
