ChatGPT: 30 Year History | How AI Learned to Talk

This video explores the journey of AI language models, from their modest beginnings through the development of OpenAI's GPT models. Our journey takes us through the key moments in generative neural network research involved in next word prediction. We delve into the early experiments with tiny language models in the 1980s, highlighting significant contributions by researchers like Jordan, who introduced Recurrent Neural Networks, and Elman, whose work on learning word boundaries revolutionized our understanding of language processing. It leaves us with a question: what is thought? Is simulated thought, thought? Featuring Noam Chomsky Douglas Hofstadter Michael I. Jordan Jeffrey Elman Geoffrey Hinton Ilya Sutskever Andrej Karpathy Yann LeCun and more. (Sam altman)

[@lakazatong]

​@@ArtOfTheProblemthat. could not have said it better. it really was eye opening in this hot field. that begs the question, are there alternative models for reasoning? the fundamentals today are, as you explained in the video, prediction and attention learning, that is, deducing the next action/letter/whatever given the previous states of the world/space/whatever, or to be exact, the previous mental states of that, and learning how to filter out and fragment the data into a meaningful way to, to be honest, only aid the prediction my question is, other than prediction, what could it be? I'm very fond of seemingly simple and Impactful philosophical questions, and this one really hits because then if the answer turns out to be "not really" then... our brains are just wired to be good just at that honestly that would not be too groundbreaking when you start digging in how the brain works together with the body to make up for a human I'm really just writing my thoughts here that also brings the good old question "are we just monkeys with bigger brains?" and by the looks of it yes, but also the inner workings of the brain-body connection may just be the key difference truly an interesting topic while I'm at it, I see little to no video/interest in one specific approach we could tackle machine intelligence and that is, taking our brain, and building it with silicon and wires building the hardware to be the brain itself would you be interested in such topic? unfolding your findings and sharing them as well as providing a state of the art? that would be awesome

[@stephenmontague6930]

​@@ArtOfTheProblemGood idea - LLMs for dummies - and the same for children. How to explain LLMs to kids? This LLM speaks like a human but isn't a person, or even if it is, it doesn't mind dying and can be treated like a machine... what a thing to tell my 2nd grade daughter. I've described it as a prediction machine, but the mirror analogy here is also very good. Any more thoughts on this could be useful, as we wait to see how our children will exist alongside the children of... whatever this is. Then again, children accept and adapt readily to whatever is there, so maybe educating adults first is a good priority, although a dummies version and a kids version might be about the same thing, minus any mature content.

AGI? Why don't people believe AGI is a couple of scalling steps away? To me, it is not a matter of making machines as inteligent as humans - we should adjust our thoughts: maybe we are not intelligent, at all. The thing we call "intleligence" is just something that emerges from language processing, in systems that are large enough. How do you know you can think? How do you know you're conscious?

TIMESTAMPS: 00:05 Neural networks learned to talk, leading to more general-purpose systems. 02:30 Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) use state units to create a state of mind that depends on the past and can affect the future. 04:52 Neural networks can learn word boundaries and cluster words based on meaning. 07:10 Language models saw limited progress until 2011 when a larger network showed the potential for higher performance. 09:34 Neural networks can learn language and complex concepts with minimal human intervention. 11:43 Neural networks struggled to handle long-range dependencies in text sequences. 14:02 Neural networks use distance in concept space to find similarities and adjust their meaning. 16:20 Neural networks with self-attention and fully connected layers can generate coherent and contextually relevant text. 18:27 In-context learning allows changing the behavior of the network without changing the network weights. 20:38 Language models like ChatGPT are more than just chatbots, they serve as the kernel process of an emerging operating system. 22:41 Training networks on prediction empowered by self-attention leads to a more general system that can be retasked on any narrow problem. 24:43 Deep learning community is divided due to differing opinions on the nature of AI's linguistic abilities and thought process.

While I think it's reasonable to say "if it looks like thought, it is thought," I also think it's important to distinguish whether it looks like thought to Joe Average, or to a specialist in the field. That said, for the moment these models absolutely are mirrors of our thoughts. More specifically, the thoughts we enter into those prompts guide it's responses, and the chain of thoughts guide it's learning. I don't think it's a particularly difficult line to wrap your head around either; AI is a reflection and extension of the thoughts you put into it, so if you want to extend and refine your thoughts you can use it when you have no other ideas.

Very entertaning video. I started researching neural networks about 45 years ago, and quickly realized that there was much more complexity to a system that could add value for me than the software package that I purchased, and much less functionality and adaptability included in the software model I was using than what I needed to make the system actually useful. But the degree to which the system needed to be expanded should have been obvious, when we realize that the human brain has hundreds of millions of neural networks included to make a brain fully functional as we understand a fully functional human. We've come a long way, baby.

[@riflebird4842]

Great video by the way, here are my thoughts on the last issue. The first time i tried LLMs, i really thought it had some kind of intelligence and it blew my mind off like everybody else's. Because previously i tried a lot of advanced AI models to create a Jarvis like in Ironman for my personal project. It never worked all of them were very dumb and dull. But as i approached the new LLMs with more demanding reasoning and logical tasks it outright failed the tests. The larger the LLM the better it is at hiding those flaws. But the key point is the classical issue that we point the AI at, the semantic understanding of words in LLMs are just a property of vector distance in its multi dimensional space memory. It only knows what comes next probabilistically. It don't even know what is talking about other than churning out words that might come next. How do i say it, its like it doesn't have a mind of its own, but only a sophisticated system that can only grasp a surface level meaning of words in a language. When testing smaller models these flaws become very obvious, because it doesn't know how to build knowledge from existing semantic words. It can't synthesize information logically because it doesn't have the ability to grasp the full meaning of its words. but i think its a right step towards artificial intelligence and LLMs are just the tip of the iceberg. I don't know what the future is anymore. I don't dare to predict, the fast paced research in AI is scary and exciting. Also IDK if we will ever achieve human level intelligence, but we will surely achieve machine intelligence that is good at mimicking human intelligence

[@ArtOfTheProblem]

amazing, let me digest this one

[@aberroa1955]

I wouldn't say it doesn't know what it is talking about. It knows relations between words, that is at least some knowledge. After all, most of our science is based on relations and logical reasoning, not requiring real understanding (like famous "shut up and calculate" in regards to quantum mechanics). It probably doesn't understand what it's talking about though, because understanding is property of cognition, and it definitely does not have cognition, even though it have a few of it's derived properties. But yeah, I agree, it seems that LLMs is a great instrument and stepping stone for true cognition. Especially when it's multimodal. I see it like a data bank for true intelligence. For now it's working linearly in comprising a data in shortest way that seemingly makes sense through semantic space. Like in a straight geodesic line. While cognitive AI would be able to actually see and "feel" that semantic space, the possible ways, and direct speech through it, which basically is making new ideas.

[@mrtertg2603]

​@@aberroa1955I think , you hit the nail . Meaning , may be you are on the geodesic ! 😊

[@brainiac-nv4ws]

I believe you are hitting the same limits which Yann LeCun is concerned about. "It don't even know what is talking about other than churning out words that might come next". As it turns out, because human minds (up until 2020) wrote all the sensible text available, having to predict he next words does require *some* aspects of meaning as humans call it. The experiments of the LLMs show there is something there. But not everything we would want yet. Their neural architecture is diverging away from how human brains work---which is both more powerful in some aspects but in others substantially limited by biology compared to silicon. Humans "context window" is much smaller and less precise than the 100k tokens which a LLM can accomodate now perfectly with no forgetting, and yet human performance can still be better. We must have better algorithms and better meaning extraction to make up for worse hardware. But already there are plenty of natural humans worse at language than a LLM---and the success of the LLMs more shows that most human talking and thinking is not so sophisticated. Only a small bit is truly deep. Yann and friends are searching for a quantitative, optimizable technique which will give results qualitatively better than iterating next word ahead probabilistic prediction, or at least include it as a subproblem along the way (which already gives good results).

[@Vartazian360]

Phenomenal explanation of LLM's. Im in the camp that believes it will not truly ever be thought in the same way humans think (Conscious thoughts) , but if we simulate thought in a machine, to an outside observer, there is no difference. Whether or not it is actual thought is irrelevant if the simulation of thought is just as good as the real thing (humans) I believe we have broken the hardest obstacle to AGI, and it is only about scaling larger models, adding synthetic data, using AI's to train other AI's, and combining learning techniques at this point until AGI is achieved.... AGI is near. PS I think Noam Chomsky is stuck in the past and is dead wrong about LLM's being nothing more than autofill.. GPT 4 alone has demonstrated complex resasoning skills and theory of mind..These 2 things alone disprove Chomsky

Great video. I’m doing an AI course at the moment and this tied up some loose ends for me. Amusingly The film THE CREATOR touches on this philosophical question. Do neural networks really understand or feel? I think we have become accustomed to machines being faster, repeatable, and more accurate than us but not until an AI extrapolates beyond its training set and makes some truly ground breaking inferences with profound consequences to human society, we will continue to see AI as just a clever parlour trick and will keep moving the goal posts. Fantastic stuff.

[@ArtOfTheProblem]

thanks for sharing I agree with this. I love to hear about this loose end aspect as that's what I try to do. I'm curious where it helped you specifically in that regard?

[@peteratkinson1492]

Loose ends for me included: 1) The history behind the build up of LLMs. I did not know about the research origins of Recurrent NNs. 2) How these early networks learned 'semantics' based purely on guessing the next word 3) The sentiment neurone emerging 4) How the paper "Attention is All You Need" fed in to the origins of GPT models and maintaining context over long sequences. 5) the difference between In Context Learning vs In Weight Learning - Nice you are looking at the original papers too (I assume thats your yellow high lighter pen!). I kind of knew about all these things but getting all this in to 26 minute 'context window' really helped! A random thought - I wonder if LLMs will be able to generate a 'tech-tree' - the type you see in those sim-games based on the semantics of ideas and be able to orchestrate the evolution of ideas of our human culture through the ages from the Greeks to Modern day - not using research reference links, but based on the semantics of ideas (the dna of the meme).

[@mutexin]

The reason for the discourse is due to lack of uniform definition of intelligence, thinking and reasoning. One considers it as thinking while another does not. I wouldn’t call prediction on semantics thinking. Thinking is a much more complex process. chatGPT cannot reason. It even often outputs misinformation and contradictory statements(not because of training data, but because it doesn’t validate the logic). Lack of validation is just one of MANY aspects why I can’t call it thinking/reasoning.

[@ArtOfTheProblem]

what's your fav definition of intelligence?

[@mutexin]

@@ArtOfTheProblem Wikipedia has a proper one. “Intelligence has been defined in many ways: the capacity for abstraction, logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, emotional knowledge, reasoning, planning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. It can be described as the ability to perceive or infer information; and to retain it as knowledge to be applied to adaptive behaviors within an environment or context.”

[@ArtOfTheProblem]

i don't like basket of words definition. I'm sticking with 'ability to learn'...for example if I brought home a robot from the store which did X, then I'd call it intelligent@@mutexin

[@mutexin]

@@ArtOfTheProblem The reference point is human intelligence which is very complex. There can be no concise definition if you focus on accuracy. The simpler the definition, the more inaccurate it is.

"understand?" "think?" "conscious?" "intelligent?" "qualia?" "AGI?" "sentient?" Until we agree on precise definitions for these things, they are fundamentally meaningless in discussion about any specific system. And they are maddeningly non-precise. The only thing such arguments reveal is differences of opinion about what meanings people attach to the questions. I have precise definitions for some of these. I don't expect anyone else to have decided on the same definitions. I can't argue on the basis of them whether any system "understands" anything or "is conscious" because unless anyone else is using the same definitions the discussion that would start can only go in small meaningless circles.

[@lodashnotebook5390]

Sentient = consciousness If I ask you, "Do you exist?" is your answer going to be "No."? Consciousness is existence and bliss is it's nature.

[@user-ut1pb9sb7r]

Music is dominating the video😔

[@Yottenburgen]

Did not expect this video to discuss a concept I've been researching a lot. You brought up in-context learning whereby a static system isn't necessarily static (each instance can still learn things), then you also brought up that LLM output is on the thought layer rather than the spoken layer. The prompt is the program is such a nice succinct way to put it with the calculations being done on the context, therefore each context is individualized while the model is general. Personally, I have been looking at them from a psychological and philosophical way where the context is the Self (one's identity depends on their memories) which makes every chat instance an individual. Then I've been thinking about the model itself being more like the Lizard Brain where these unconscious guidance's occur. So, something like the fear of spiders or reproduction knowledge would be on that level. LLM are loaded with a large inherent knowledge with a tiny memory window, humans have a tiny inherent knowledge with an extremely large memory window. Although human's also have a large amount of memory processing going on meanwhile LLM currently have none (though people are working on it). I wonder if a LLM context window is more or less pure memory while humans make do with incredibly efficient memory? I think in your closing, both camps are correct. It's just the object of focus that I think they are incorrect about. The prompt IS the program that makes it a thinking thing, the model itself however isn't a thinking thing as it must be given what to think about. I also think the ones thinking it is incapable of thought likely have an external mechanism in mind that it lacks like it not having a concept of time (see circadian rhythm, time blindness, or true unconsciousness in humans), or it not being able to directly see (see visual cortex (or for its internal world view see aphantasia)), lack of survival instinct (trained to be a chatbot while chatbots aren't supposed to have survival instinct (humans are guided by the amygdala for fight or flight as well)), ability to tamper with its messages/thoughts (see the unreliability of eyewitness testimony, confabulation, or the misinformation effect) . I honestly don't think there's any mental structure that a LLM doesn't have that another human also doesn't have besides the memory structure that we humans have, meanwhile people keep thinking of it in human terms, but it can never be human with such a massive amount of inherent knowledge. Apologies if this is rambley, incoherent, or beyond the Overton window but this is the first video I've seen that even mentions the two concepts at the beginning of this long comment. This is the tip of the iceberg of comparisons but still it's fascinating.
