https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/ Very cool, if true - Dreamwidth Studios Thu, 13 Jun 2024 14:22:00 GMT LiveJournal / Dreamwidth Studios andrewducker personal https://v2.dreamwidth.org/707796/27209 https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/ 100 80 https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/4440462.html Thu, 13 Jun 2024 14:22:00 GMT https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/4440462.html A little over a year ago I wrote <a href="https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/4285774.html">a post about AI, Intelligence, and Large Language Models</a>. And, having just re-read it, I totally stand by it.<br /><br />However, a year later, a couple of things came along that add something useful to it:<br /><br />1) <a href="https://ig.ft.com/generative-ai/">This piece</a> on how the underlying technology works, and how it spots patterns in text and uses them to build a working model of language. If you're at all interested in a layperson-aimed introduction to the Transformer, which is what all of the recent breakthroughs in AI are based on, then I highly recommend it.<br /><br />2) <a href="https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2024/06/05/robots-are-suddenly-getting-cleverer-whats-changed">This piece</a> on how robots and AI are working together. The most important bit being that they are building models that blend together LLMs with other kinds of input from the world, allowing them to build a much richer understanding. This quote is key: <blockquote>These “vision-language-action models” (VLAMs) take in text and images, plus data relating to the robot’s presence in the physical world, including the readings on internal sensors, the degree of rotation of different joints and the positions of actuators (such as grippers, or the fingers of a robot’s hands). The resulting models can then answer questions about a scene, such as “can you see an apple?” But they can also predict how a robot arm needs to move to pick that apple up, as well as how this will affect what the world looks like...Grounding the model’s perception in the real world in this way greatly reduces hallucinations (the tendency for AI models to make things up)</blockquote> as well as their ability to tell you why they did what they did when asked<blockquote>Such models can also respond in kind. “When the robot makes a mistake, you can query the robot, and it answers in text form,”..."It can provide explanations while we drive, and it allows us to debug, to give the system instructions, or modify its behaviour to drive in a certain style"</blockquote>.<br /><br />The latter feels like the biggest breakthrough to me. It's exactly what I was talking about in the penultimate paragraph of my last post. A system that's not just understanding how language works, but also how it relates to the real world is something that understands *meaning*. And that's incredibly powerful.<br /><br />While I was looking for the post I came across <a href="https://andrewducker.livejournal.com/3303704.html">a poll I ran back in 2015</a>. And I'm re-running it here, to see how different the results are:<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://www.dreamwidth.org/poll/?id=31419">View Poll: #31419</a></div><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=andrewducker&ditemid=4440462" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/4440462.html ai poll public 23 https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/4383407.html Thu, 04 Jan 2024 12:00:07 GMT https://andrewducker.dreamwidth.org/4383407.html <dl class="links"><dt class="link"><a href="https://iorate.github.io/ublacklist/docs" rel="nofollow">1.
