🤖✨ Behold, a 33-minute #marathon on how AI's price tag is the real Skynet! 💸 If you wade through the epic Wordscapes of financial blah-blah, you too can be enlightened—at only $70 a year! Because clearly, understanding AI's wallet woes requires a novel-length #newsletter. 📚👀

🤖✨ Welcome to the parallel universe of "Understanding AI," where talking about reinforcement learning with "minimal math and jargon" actually means repeating the same phrase a dozen times until it loses all meaning. 🎓🔍 Because who needs #clarity when you can drown your audience in #buzzwords and call it a "deep dive"? 🌀📚

Yesterday, during a seminar series organised by Stevan Harnad in Montréal, I had the pleasure to present some of my joint work with @raphaelmilliere on grounding in Large Language Models, as well as more recent work of mine on understanding large AI systems through functional ontologies.

If you are interested, the recording can be found here:

(After an awkward attempt at French in the introduction, I quickly switch to English)

Nice (old-ish) post by Ryan O'Connor on emergent capabilities in LLMs. I particularly liked this passage:

"It would be useful to have an epistemological hierarchy of tasks, in which salient and measurable abilities are identified and listed as a required antecedent to more complicated tasks which utilize them. Such a hierarchy may help us begin to predict at what scale some emergent abilities may occur, or at least provide an ordering on the set."

Cool little comment paper by Michael Frank on why LLMs and other Large Pre-Trained AI models can be fruitfully studied using methods and techniques coming from developmental psychology:

I've been working on a similar approach to understanding such systems, so it's great to see such ideas get their chance in the Nature spotlight!
