Here is my talk at @MIT (after some delayšŸ˜…). I made this talk last year when I was thinking about a paradigm shift. This delayed posting is timely as we just released o1, which I believe is a new paradigm. It's a good time to zoom out for high level thinking. (1/11)

This is my lecture from 2 months ago at @Cornell. ā€œHow do I increase my output?ā€ One natural answer is "I will just work a few more hours." Working longer can help, but eventually you hit a physical limit. A better question is, ā€œHow do I increase my output without increasing

When we make rapid progress, we tend to double down on the working paradigm. Bitter lessons suggest that this can be risky for deep learning. When trying to make a new paradigm to work at all, it is often necessary to add structures, e.g. clever modeling ideas. These structures

I really like this diagram from @_jasonwei and @hwchung27 about how to view the bitter lesson:. It's a mistake not to add structure now, it's a mistake to not remove that structure later. We're at the precipice of setting up a huge, powerful RL training run that will define the.

I often hear people say they believe the world will be vastly different in 5 years. Yet, many of them plan life and career as if things won’t change much. Why such discrepancy? Humans have bias towards downplaying major future changes, especially the fast changing ones. Perhaps.

What we're seeing in AI will also happen in other technical fields. While AI’s expected impact is undeniably large, that's not unique; there are other hugely valuable areas, e.g. robotics, longevity. What truly differentiates AI is its rate of progress, specifically how it's.

We have long been accustomed to planning life around a 30-year career. As our healthspan increases, that assumption is increasingly wrong. What would you do differently if your career were, say, 100 years instead of 30? Which options have you subconsciously given up because you.

Differences in model quality are magnified with task difficulty. So if you work on harder problems, you benefit more from AI progress. Good forcing function to work on more challenging problems!.
