Introducing task vectors!
A new way to steer models by doing arithmetic with model weights. Subtract to make models forget, add to make them learn

Don’t write code often?
Been a while?
Worry no more!
Introducing the “Fuzzy Compiler” 🧮
Just make up your own code, no worrying about syntax. Translates to working code w comments.

Last night, I wrote a tool which allows you to scrape data out of GPT models using SQL queries. Just make up a relevant database, and use your imagination of what kind of query you'd like, and it will return the data within GPT's parameters.
Results are structured. Example:

I've been looking around at hardware options for training/deploying ML models, and became interested in the differences between academia and industry 🎓🏢
Here's a poll: where do you train your ML models? (RTs appreciated) 1/5

If you last checked in on AI image makers a month ago & thought “that is a fun toy, but is far from useful…” Well, in just the last week or so two of the major AI systems updated.
You can now generate a solid image in one try. For example, “otter on a plane using wifi” 1st try:

We have grown accustomed to super-narrow ASI: calculators and analytical tools and chess robots.
From here we I foresee AIs with the same •breadth• as the human mind over different space: vastly smarter than us about many things while far stupider than us in many ways.
