I present to you, some images that Midjourney created from some scientific paper titles. I think maybe this should be required with every paper submission to a journal. Let’s see some of your favorites!

And now a bunch from our lab:

Are LLMs deterministic? That is, during the course of a single input to GPT3 or similar making its way through to the output, is a rand() or similar ever called? Is there any source of stochasticity or noise in the algorithm or is the only indeterminism in the history of inputs?

If I had time, I’d do a podcast called “Well what did you think would happen?”, where I would invite people (from the news, and people I know) and just give them a chance to describe what they were expecting when they did that thing they did. I find myself asking that question

mentally a lot, when hearing about stuff people decided to do. I’d just ask that one question and let them talk: “paint for me a picture of exactly how you thought that was going to go.” That’s it, that would be the interview. You can imagine some great guests. Episode 1, just to
get things rolling, would be me, talking about some of the in retrospect dumb stuff I’ve done, and trying to answer that same question. I think we’d have no end of compelling content to follow in future episodes, to get a glimpse into people’s self- and world-models.
