AI pioneer Geoff Hinton says the future of computing is analog, something I’ve long believed. I think he’s right. And, the term mortal computation is a great moniker. // @geoffreyhinton // #computing #AI #deeplearning #mortalcomputation // @NeurIPSConf

Initial Fine-Tuning Approach: Breaking Books into Chunks and Generating Questions
By
–
initial approach: oh this seems not too bad, I read this doc https://
beta.openai.com/docs/guides/fi
ne-tuning
… and was like yeah I can just break up the authors' books into chunks and generate some simple questions for each chunk and then use that to fine-tune the model -
Fine-tuning models is easy but data preparation remains challenging

it was easy to fine-tune the models (sorta, gathering and cleaning the data sucked and it doesn't look like there is any easy automatic process to do this yet in terms of a simple online tool)

RA-CM3 Scalable Modular Knowledge Integration Architecture
By
–
RA-CM3 integrates knowledge in a more scalable & modular way compared to previous methods. It’s more resilient to long-tail or unseen knowledge which can help the growth & update of knowledge over time in real world settings. We’re excited for the possibilities it presents. 3/4

Meta AI Introduces RA-CM3: Multimodal Model for Text and Image Generation
By
–
New paper from our team at Meta AI. Retrieval-Augmented CM3 (RA-CM3) is the first multimodal model that can retrieve and generate mixtures of text and images — while also reducing training cost and model size. Now available on arXiv https://
arxiv.org/abs/2211.12561 1/4
