[@clray123]

It has always shocked me that when important legal texts are altered, there is no publicly available record for where each line and word of legal text originated from. Yes, you can see the new version of a law, but how interesting would it be to see that Mr. X edited that line or Lobby Organisation Y contributed that very paragraph. As we know from source code version control, it is technically very possible, even trivial to track such information, but I'm afraid that our dear lawmakers have zero interest in such levels of accountability and transparency.

[@josephmacdonald1255]

Yannic has provided a fairly good summary of the risk, I may have missed him saying it, but in my opinion having LLMs generating different answers to identical prompts at different times when none of the facts or rules have change is expoentialy increasing the risk of a negligence claim. The issue of rulings and legislation being superseded by later legislation and later rulings. I also believe pertinent is more accurate than relevant.

[@rischiraj786]

Superb !! I think every answer from LLM should pass a legal expert Where there is a need of critical reasoning and thinking

[@marinepower]

LLMs hallucinate because they have zero grounding, but also because they are trained with next-token prediction. In essence, this means that whatever is in the context is maximally correct -- including whatever crap the llm itself generated. This is why, if your context is, 'does 3+5=9? Yes, 3+5 equals 9 because', then it's trivial to see that the model will hallucinate because it must match the existing context. I don't know what you were talking about with llms not being able to build a world model, being 'just statistical' models, etc. Humans are also statistical models with a lifetime of training data, that has nothing to do with hallucinations.

[@doppelrutsch9540]

That is both kind of true and not true in practice. A lot of gen AI tools these days are not LLMs in the strict sense of the word: After receiving additional training like RLFH or related techniques the distribution of the output is significantly shifted from the simple "most likely" continuation. You can observer this very strongly with Claude for example which will correct itself sometimes when it makes a mistake in its output even without human prompting - and of course the classic "answering this question would be unethical or dangerous" refuse responses.

[@marinepower]

@@doppelrutsch9540 I suppose RLHF with the model making mistakes and then backpedaling could very well solve what I'm describing. Historically, no one ever trained on models making mistakes and then correcting them, we instead would simply train on 'clean' data. But, I suppose, if a mask was applied such that the training loss was only applied to the correction tokens, with the actual bad data tokens masked (so that the model wouldn't learn to generate bad data, only the corrections to the bad data), then it could work.

[@doppelrutsch9540]

@@marinepower I wasn't describing a hypothetical, models *do* work like that and have for years. And they are also trained on data that is purposefully incorrect with later added corrections, I am quiet sure.

[@clray123]

There is no law that the model "must match the existing context". But when training on the next token prediction task, models "discover" by themselves that copying from context more often than not minimizes the average loss across batch and they develop structures suitable to perform such copying ("induction heads" - in small models it can be even empirically observed when they develop during training and they can be ablated away). You could construct your training data in such a way that copying would not be an effective loss minimizing strategy. I think the bigger problem is the "average" part in minimizing average loss. A training outcome where you are slightly wrong on each token is arithmetically the same as an outcome where you are very right on many tokens and very wrong on others. Also, add to that that with cross-entropy loss only the probability of the correct token matters in considered for loss calculation - and maximizing this probability can also rise probability of similiar (but incorrect) tokens as a side effect (as mentioned in the ORPO paper). So overall, the impression is that our easy-to-compute loss function is crap, but it is hard to devise better ones (especially differentiable and efficient ones). That is where the PPO/RLHF algorithms try to compensate, but the later devised DPO/ORPO/etc. show that they do not really do such a great job either (because you can obtain similar "alignment" quality using these simpler non-PPO algorithms - what seems like an achievement really just highlights how the original approach "also sucks"). It could be that the core problem of "rare truths" is just not possible to represent well using statistical distributions. Imagine a training dataset in which you have a million sequences which end in one way (and that's correct for them), but just one sequence which ends in a different way, based on some slight difference in the constituent tokens. How do you exactly teach a statistical model to pay attention to that one example and please disregard the mountain of what looks like "contrary" evidence opposing it? Possibly by assigning a million times weight to that one example, but then, if you are forced to apply such tricks and think about exceptions by yourself, then what good is machine learning, why not just write an if-else rule or a database of cases if you already know what to look for? I think the public is slowly coming to the realization that there is no free lunch in AI (probably something which seasoned ML researchers have known all along, but they certainly have been quite silent about it recently because of a huge conflict of interest).

[@marinepower]

​@@clray123 I do think the next-token prediction training regime is sort of ass. It is nice in the sense that (with temporal masking), it essentially allows you to train each token as an independent sample (sort of), so it's parallelizable, but there can definitely be improvements made. One thing that could maybe work is diffusion-based transformer models. In essence, instead of autoregressive token generation, you generate an entire sentence at a time (via iterative diffusion). Basically, you first train a CLIP-like model where you have a corpus of sentences, you use an LLM to reword said sentences while keeping the same semantic meaning, then train a model such that the original and reworded sentences maximize their cosine similarity between each other and minimize the cosine similarity between other sentences. Then, during training, you noise your input embedding (instead of using a one-hot encoding representing just that token), and pass the thing through your transformer decoder. The final loss is signal_strength * logit_loss + (1 - signal_strength) * similarity_loss. In essence, in low signal regimes, we want our model to predict a sentence that is semantically similar (even if it's not using the same tokens), whereas, when the noise is low we want it to predict the actual tokens as to what is in our training set. I haven't thought too deeply about this so maybe there's some sort of crucial issue with this methodology but I think it makes sense.

Hi, love your videoes on LLMs and hallucinations - I'm new to machine learning (doing a masters in CS) so I find this channel very useful. I understand that LLMs arent designed specifically for reasoning hence why we shouldn't expect them to perform well in QA-like tasks. So what are LLMs fundamentally designed for then?

[@clray123]

[@solyarisoftware]

Hi Yannic! Thanks for your insightful videos. You are right that hallucinations are inherent in GPT-based models, and it's challenging to limit them with in-context learning. However, I think that retrieval-augmented generation for querying large corpora of documents might not be the best use case for LLMs, even if it's the most popular. In my opinion, where LLMs truly shine is in emulating human tasks based on conversation. I demonstrated some interesting use cases in my recent article: "A Conversational Agent with a Single Prompt?" published on the social network that starts with an "L." I'm curious to hear your thoughts on it. Giorgio

[@AlexanderTurkhanov]

Very interesting, thank you. I enjoyed it very much and recommended it to my colleagues. What sparked my interest is the benchmark. Like with any expert opinion, many people I listen to hallucinate (imagine, brainstorm, we can use a lot of other non-loaded words here) a lot, but that's a valuable perk. They make me think about the subject from a new perspective. What are better ways to evaluate the quality of answers? I understand that we should at least distinguish between explorative questions/answers and definitive ones. And the quality of those will be different. But what else?

[@BenoitStPierre]

Have we tried putting all the legal textbooks necessary to read to become a lawyer in-context yet? Maybe they can be post-trained to learn the definitions and the approach?

That would be worth doing, and it would give you simple facts, but as yanny says, you need to think (reason) over the facts. For sure, in some form the whole background should be used, either icl+, or foundation model.

[@andytroo]

the problem is the complete body of case law (even the potentially relevant case law) can be bigger than the context window of the llm, and anything past that is only statistically stored in the dot product between idea-association-vectors in the internal weights. Even within large context windows models statistically answer, and are only "often" right.

*Summary* This video essay critiques a Stanford paper that examined the reliability of AI-powered legal research tools. *Here's a breakdown:* * *0:00* - *The Problem:* AI legal research tools, which use LLMs (like ChatGPT) to answer legal questions based on public data, are prone to "hallucinations"-generating inaccurate or misleading information. * *15:45* - *The Claim:* Some legal tech companies advertise their products as "hallucination-free" or "eliminating" hallucinations due to using RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation). * *15:45* - *RAG Explained:* RAG enhances LLMs by incorporating a search engine to fetch relevant documents alongside user queries. It essentially allows the LLM to "refer to notes" while answering. * *29:16* - *The Study:* The paper's authors tested popular legal research tools (Lexis+ AI, Westlaw AI, Casetext), comparing them to GPT-4 with and without RAG. * *~**30:00* - *The Findings:* While RAG did reduce hallucinations compared to a standalone LLM, these tools still exhibited hallucinations between 17% and 33% of the time. * *32:00* - *Critique of the Study:* * *32:00* - *Shady Practices:* Kilcher argues both the researchers and companies engaged in shady behavior. The researchers allegedly evaluated the wrong product (Practical Law instead of Westlaw) and only gained access to the correct tool after publishing their findings. * *55:27* - *Misleading Metrics:* The paper's definition of "hallucination" is criticized, as is their choice of metrics, which might misrepresent the tools' capabilities. * *~**49:00* - *Kilcher's Main Argument:* * *~**49:00* - *LLMs are not designed for complex reasoning tasks.* Expecting them to solve intricate legal questions end-to-end is unrealistic. * *~**49:00* - *The focus should be on human-AI collaboration.* Combining the strengths of search engines, LLMs, and human legal expertise is a more effective approach. * *1:09:20* - *Conclusion:* * AI legal research tools are not a replacement for human lawyers. * Users should always verify the information generated by these tools. *Key Takeaway:* While AI can be a valuable tool in legal research, it's crucial to be aware of its limitations and use it responsibly. Overhyping AI capabilities and neglecting human oversight can lead to flawed conclusions. i used gemini 1.5 pro to summarize the transcript.

There is some proof that LLMs have indeed some world models, but they are just not as sophisticated as human world models. It makes sense though; How would an LLM be able to generate (at least sometimes) multiple sentences that are completely true and which are not in the training dataset? This kind of interpolation only works if you have some world model.

Probably something involving a proper database of information and something ai based to assist searching in there. A model isn't a good way to store explicit information, it encodes information implicitly into areas of numbers and neither we nor the ai can know what any of them specifically mean. We also can't know whether an area of numbers maybe also contains information that isn't true but simply an artifact of wiggling adjacent numbers into place during training.

I wonder whether some sort of transformer model built to move an embedding of the retrieved results towards what is hopefully an embedding of the answer guided by the question would work better for retrieval augmented generation. I feel like one major problem with using LLMs in this context is that they are also trained to answer questions by themselves, rather than having to stick to the retrieved results, which could make them more likely to produce hallucinations.

The paper's title is: "Justifiable artificial intelligence: Engineering large language models for legal applications".
