Optimizing AI models for creativity to overcome lack of variation
By
–
The inability of AI models to produce creative variation is a huge gap. The fact that they generate similar ideas limits their ability to do science & the same-y writing limits their usefulness in many other applications This paper showed you can optimize models for creativity

Enterprise roadmap vs Labs’ rapid AGI scaling vision
By
–
Enterprises are going to actually want a coherent roadmap for the development of tools like Codex and Cowork, so they can plan and train and scale their use. This conflicts with the Labs’ vision where these tools rapidly scale exponentially in ability as models approach AGI.

Why Do Large Neural Networks Work?
By
–
Researchers have just explained why massive neural networks work so effectively. Deep networks possess enough capacity to memorize completely random noise. Yet, they still excel at making accurate predictions on unseen data. A new paper finally sheds light on this phenomenon. The empirical Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) subtly divides the output.
