Language models are based on statistical predictions of word sequences, and as they scale in parameters and training data, they improve in their ability to predict the next word in a sequence.

The sequence-to-sequence model allows for translating sentences by consuming words one by one and generating translations word by word, which was a significant advancement in AI.

The ability to predict the next word in a sequence is deceptively complex and requires a model of reality, which is a significant achievement in AI.

By training models that learn like the human brain, we aim to generate entire worlds and overcome the limitations of large language models.

The core of generative AI relies on supervised learning to predict the next word in a sequence, enabling the creation of coherent text.

By training language models to output leaderboards based on binary preferences, we can convert the evaluation problem into a learning problem, allowing us to assess model performance across different contexts.

The model developed for Google Translate utilized a deep LSTM stack with an attention module, allowing it to track multiple states and focus on relevant input data during output generation.

Large language models, like ChatGPT, demonstrate that language can self-generate based on its internal structure, indicating that the principles governing human language generation may be the same as those in these models.

The evolution of language models, particularly with the introduction of GPT-3, has demonstrated a significant leap in their ability to perform language tasks, even though they do not possess real-world knowledge.
