i got excited about this but then went through their terms. nothing in there says Replit has the right to access them for training data, though public Repls are MIT by default, many of these won't be public i'm guessing

Data Quality and Curriculum Learning for LLM Training

"Obviously anything that looks useless (like SHA hashes or other noise) is not worth training on and is just wasting training capacity and time"
"You may want to start with simpler topics and work up to more complex later, just like in human school"

"Finally, we are very concerned that this GPT could be unaligned with humans. This would be bad. We want this to be a nice GPT that deeply loves all humans and is always considerate and helpful. Thanks"

Meta-learning policies for LLM attention management during training

Feels like a lot of fertile ground is left in managing the "attention" of an LLM during its training via a meta-learning policy, instead of the typical "memorize dataset uniformly at random" strategy. And giving it a calculator and a scratch pad.

Training Strategies: Skimming, Filtering Noise, and Revisiting Content

More generally a few remarkable strategies people use during their training:
1) skim text because they already know it
2) ignore text because it's clearly noise (e.g. they won't memorize SHA256 hashes. LLMs will.)
3) revisit parts that are learnable but not yet learned

Examples vs. Presentations: Spaced Repetition in LLM Training

Is it the number of examples that matters or the number of presentations to the model during training? E.g. humans used spaced repetition to memorize facts but there are no equivalents of similar techniques in LLMs where the typical training regime is uniform random.
