The other day I solved AI, but why bother to publish it? Somehow, somewhere Juergen Schmidhuber has already done it.

Infinity Non-Existence Challenges Turing Machine Hierarchy Theory
By
–
Because infinity does not exist, there is no difference between a Turing machine and a finite state machine, and the Chomsky hierarchy is vacuous.

Opinion: RLHF not necessary for stop tokens
By
–
You don't need RLHF for stop tokens; GPT‑3 had that long before RLHF shipped, SFT works fine, and here base Llama 3.1 gets it (presumably) just from Llama 2 prompts floating around online. RLHF does a lot but it's not that deep; I doubt it's adding new concepts.

Unabridged Llama 3.1 base outputs show psychosis-like spontaneity
By
–



"Hey what's up." — An unabridged, minimally prompted conversation with Llama 3.1 405B base bf16. Responses exhibit naturalistic, emotional prose and psychosis-like spontaneity, both common in under-prompted base Llama and vividly unlike the output of widely used chat LLMs.
