2023-05-21 16:57:47 @jackclarkSF Was wondering if there is like a "critical period" for first developing as a writer (similar to how we develop language and lots of other skills) that could now be in jeopardy. OTOH, maybe it could lower some barriers for some would-be writers--particularly for ESL kids.
2023-05-21 16:51:47 @jackclarkSF Who are you thinking will be most affected by this? You're focusing on the writer here (who has a choice), not the business or consumer. Through that lens, I was wondering if it could sort of "stunt growth" for would-be writers.

2023-04-23 17:17:35 @GaryMarcus @AndrewCurran_ the point is that these are the biases that RLHF is papering over -- these really obvious examples. It's in a way helpful to have these, as it provides a window into deeper constructs the model may have learned. Changing how pronouns are treated is trivial (they're closed class).
2023-04-23 17:16:34 @GaryMarcus @AndrewCurran_ The very transparent information provided at https://t.co/lEfuzQQkbB is "ChatGPT Mar 23 Version", which I would imagine is also incorrect: Shortly after these issues are flagged online, if they get engagement, then the issue gets fixed.

2023-04-17 18:47:17 Maintaining the belief in "magic" properties, and amplifying it to millions (thanks for nothin @60Minutes!) serves Google's PR goals. Unfortunately, it's disinformation. <
2023-04-17 18:46:10 Answer: I suspect they literally don't understand how it works. What I wrote above is likely news to them. And they're incentivised not to understand (close your eyes to that Datasheet!!).
2023-04-17 18:44:43 8. So how could it be that Google execs are making it seem like their system "magically" learned Bengali, when it most likely was trained on Bengali?
2023-04-17 18:43:57 7. Oh, right, and also it's not possible to speak well-formed languages that you've never had access to.
2023-04-17 18:42:54 6. It is not a stretch, then, to assume that Bard includes Bengali in its training data. By prompting a model trained on Bengali with Bengali, it will quite easily slide into what it knows of Bengali: This is how prompting works.
2023-04-17 18:40:15 5. PaLM is the forerunner to Bard, and PaLM work has been incorporated into Bard. https://t.co/zltz465dzo https://t.co/4phaBAeXUv
2023-04-17 18:36:29 4. "Bangladeshi" is not a language. But (I guess) it is a term English speakers use to mean "person from Bangladesh". Almost 99% of people in Bangladesh speak *Bengali* (Bangla) as their first language. https://t.co/LX67Ybv7oO
2023-04-17 18:32:41 @aryaman2020 @60Minutes Yeah I'm getting to that!
2023-04-17 18:32:17 3. A quick look at PaLM's Datasheet shows that Bengali is one of the languages it is trained on. https://t.co/RfV7OYEcA8 Here's a screenshot of the table. Bengali makes up 0.006% of the training data. https://t.co/stX9dYsvsD
2023-04-17 18:30:23 @60Minutes 2. Google I/O 2022 featured the "PaLM" model. In their demo, they show how the model can be made to communicate in Bengali. Google stated in this demo that this was "teaching" the system Bengali. Here is the example. https://t.co/ZnVkOyzMCR
2023-04-17 18:28:29 @60Minutes 1. The exact language being referred to seems to be "Bangladeshi". https://t.co/zJJrqSVbcg I can't stomach the 60 minutes piece
2023-04-17 18:23:26 Okay, @60Minutes is saying that Google's Bard model "spoke in a foreign language it was never trained to know." I looked into what this can mean, and it appears to be a lie. Here's the evidence, curious what others found. https://t.co/u3WtvbOtAM
2023-04-17 18:07:38 By amplifying Google's wordings on AI, journalists propagate a system that *marginalizes creators* and *erases accountability* of those deploying it.

2023-04-16 21:37:57 @TaliaRinger Once I was told to submit a .doc version of something done in latex. I just took a screenshot of the resultant pdf and pasted it into the doc, heh.
2023-04-16 21:07:25 @Miles_Brundage @HotForMoot I think that only applies if you're in the Bay Area. In Oregon they'd throw a (naturally fallen) tree at you for that.
2023-04-16 21:02:57 @yoavgo @marybethdefranc Yes, as far as I can understand. Which suggests to me that perhaps the government is incentivized to handicap development in this regulation, to the extent that the tech could at all wrest power from it.
2023-04-16 20:58:56 @JoshGhalgh Completely. This aligns with discourse in ethical AI circles about making users aware of, e.g., automation bias, before using the tech.
2023-04-16 20:54:04 Thanks @marybethdefranc for the nudge: It ALSO lays out basics for data documentation and provenance, including naming your data sources.
2023-04-16 20:53:07 @marybethdefranc Yes! I forgot! This is one of the most important things!
2023-04-16 20:52:02 @MultiLeninist Thanks!
2023-04-16 20:48:08 There's more, but those are the things that made me most . Curious what others think. It takes less than half an hour to read (depending on how much you're looking up other related stuff).
2023-04-16 20:47:31 I could see this being a massive force of censorship, but also, it has similarities to the idea of certifying a technology before it's approved for use (like what the US FDA does for food/drugs). Also similar to the current US AI Accountability Act proposal for self-audits.
2023-04-16 20:45:49 Sixth, a self-audit, but that must be submitted &
2023-04-16 20:43:32 Fifth, it re-asserts its data protection constraints, also articulated in China's 2021 PIPL: "If the data contains personal information, it shall obtain the **consent** () of the subject...". But I think this is fairly gameable--there are a lot of exceptions.
2023-04-16 20:34:42 Fourth, it asserts a lot of individual rights. E.g., "Respect the legitimate interests of others" () suggests to me that artists whose content is non-consensually taken might have some rights (yes? no?)
2023-04-16 20:31:20 Third, this crazy idea that the training data must be OBJECTIVE ()! No subjective opinions allowed. That decimates most current pretraining data. ("Be able to guarantee the authenticity, accuracy, objectivity and diversity of the data").
2023-04-16 20:28:29 Second, the onus of responsibility is on the **provider** of the technology -- not the user. If the tech generates misinformation, it's the provider's fault for generating it, not the user's fault for believing it.

2023-04-12 20:26:22 Then AI culture, alongside capitalism and market pressures, constrain modern model development to continue using these (likely) problematic datasets. <
2023-04-12 20:24:29 I have an incentive to hide it, but, here I am explaining. The problem is w/ the massive datasets that are used as the *first* training data for a model. It would be great if we handled that data responsibly. But until/unless there are regulatory constraints &
2023-04-12 20:23:15 - People who can hold those doing this accountable -- government and free press -- don't quite understand the difference between these 2 data types, and no one with incentives to hide it are explaining it to them.
2023-04-12 20:22:25 - People leading the companies doing this mostly just don't care. - People using models made available from other companies can't know whether the data they're using is illegal or not, because it isn't documented. ...
2023-04-12 20:21:12 How can it be that we're seeing large, commercial models that are likely trained on non-commercial data, given what we know about how the ML development lifecycle works? Here are the answers, I think, and curious to know what others think:
2023-04-12 20:18:49 Currently, all (?) "large" models are "pre-trained" on unconsented data, data without compensation or credit, private data, and data that may contain non-commercial licenses. Even for models being shared commercially!
2023-04-12 20:17:36 Anywho, we are seeing more and more companies be open about their data. That is so cool! But let's be clear on *what* they are being open about.
2023-04-12 20:15:26 @stealcase Adding a bonus timeline here from the class I taught last year in @emilymbender 's program. https://t.co/iEYFMDK0g9
2023-04-12 20:11:43 @stealcase The issue is that it's not fine-tuning data that those dealing w data rights are most concerned with. Small datasets have been collected for yrs, and there's a ton that can be learned from scholarship on small-dataset collection (which used to be seen as large) starting ~1964 (!)
2023-04-12 20:06:44 @stealcase It's a little frustrating to see companies give the sense that they're doing something revolutionary by being open about *fine-tuning* data. But they're right: It is a big deal to be responsible about data *at all*. ML culture treats data curation as useless, or women's work.

2023-04-11 16:33:15 @SashaMTL @jjvincent Across the board, people seemed to agree that iNaturalist data+format (including Seek data) was a good substrate to further build upon. Sara Beery would know a lot more. I'm getting off my soapbox now. ...For now.
2023-04-11 16:32:17 @SashaMTL @jjvincent This was a big topic amongst the participants at the first US-Africa Science Frontiers thingie: 1-Lack of biodiversity data for understanding the effects of climate change 2-Lack of consistent formatting/infrastructure for said data (1/2)
2023-04-11 16:27:13 @SashaMTL @jjvincent In countries where they have *no clue* what's happening to their animals or plants, the "citizen science" of taking pictures and uploading them to these databases is critical to understanding, e.g., the effect of global warming on biodiversity.
2023-04-11 16:26:34 @SashaMTL @jjvincent I imagine you know more about this than me Sasha, but, for example, my understanding is that the iNaturalist database is one of the largest ones, and shares data into datasets useful for biodiversity tracking, eg, https://t.co/LPim9ZxdbW
2023-04-11 16:24:04 @SashaMTL @jjvincent iNaturalist owns Seek, and both are informed by biologists and biodiversity experts AFAIK. One reason I'm particularly *pissed* about James' statement of these apps "sucking ass" is because they are literally being used to track biodiversity in areas with otherwise no data.

2023-04-11 14:12:01 @jjvincent No no no, not true. The location matters a ton. West Coast of the US works relatively well. iNaturalist in particular is an app worth supporting for a bunch of reasons.

2023-04-11 03:42:38 @NLPurr I noticed you were tweeting a long reading of the paper at the same time I was starting!! I intentionally didn't read it though, so as not to influence myself too much . Crazy timing! Great minds, eh?
2023-04-11 01:32:26 Okay my dog is telling me that I'm being boring and I need to chase her a little bit. Yes, I perceive her to be talking. Be back in a bit.
2023-04-11 01:29:52 @ryanmhickman At this rate, I think I'll get that far in like 5 years.
2023-04-11 01:29:06 A lot of benchmarks use multiple choice. When you see claims that AI can understand law (or whatever), often what's actually happening is that it's selecting among sets of 4ish answers, 1 of which it has a similar version of in its training data. BeWaRe the MuLtIpLe ChOiCe TrIcK
2023-04-11 01:28:07 "We ran preliminary tests...on...multiple choice..." Okay, I need to flag this to make a general point. Ahem ahem.
2023-04-11 01:24:15 This is reminding me of that game with fortune cookies where you just add "in bed" at the end of everything. It's like that, except here we need to add "for humans" to everything.
2023-04-11 01:22:25 "Coding and mathematics are emblematic of the ability to reason and think abstractly" Add: "For humans"
2023-04-11 01:21:18 "[The abilities to translate] clearly demonstrate that GPT-4 can comprehend complex ideas". Same problem as above. A translation appearing coherent to us means that GPT-4 can generate text **that we** (not it) can comprehend.
2023-04-11 01:17:21 Whatever you think the model is doing--conscious, intelligent, whatever-- all you KNOW is what *you* are perceiving. So let's be clear about that or else we don't design experiments in the right way. We end up testing our own perception rather than the computers'.
2023-04-11 01:16:21 Throughout, this paper needs slight edits to say variations of "which we (people) perceive as X". "This model generates content __that we can perceive as visual images__" "This model generates text __that we__ can understand."
2023-04-11 01:12:56 "[GPT-4] can not only generate fluent and coherent text, but also understand and manipulate it..." Same problem as above. GPT-4 can generate text that WE (humans) understand. That does not mean that IT (GPT-4) understands.
2023-04-11 01:09:50 @wolfeb99 Is what different? I have entire conversations with my dog, she has a specific voice and strong opinions and everything. I report these conversations to my partner. And yet we share the knowledge that she does not actually talk, nor have a human voice.
2023-04-11 01:05:18 (For more deets on how computers "see things" differently than humans, this older work gives a good sense) https://t.co/YEdVRipVef
2023-04-11 01:05:08 GPT-4 can generate content that is visual *FOR HUMANS*. What it's actually generating is coordinates, etc. It's not "visual" for the computer in the way it's "visual" for a human. This needs to be clear or else we get confused and attribute our human perception to the machine.
2023-04-11 01:01:45 "[GPT-4 can] infer and generate visual features". Wait wait wait this conflates human perception and computer-based generation. We have to be very clear about this or human perception gets accidentally attributed to the machine. Let's be clear:

2023-04-11 00:54:02 We can be EXCITED ABOUT UNICORNS! That is cool on it's own! We don't need to make up stuff that can't be supported to be excited about it. Tikz Donkey+Tikz Horn ≈ Tikz Unicorn! Cool!
2023-04-11 00:52:16 Make no mistake, it is COOL that a text model can learn how to draw a unicorn from words and Tikz code!!!! The "nit" is that this is resultant, expected, working-as-intended behavior, not emergent imagination.

2023-04-06 18:59:36 @Erin_R_Hoffman Right, well this is what I'm getting at. One could imagine a world where **every token** is associated with its source. It means massive models, but given the choice b/w building LLMs that are larger bc they index their sources vs bc of more tokens, field has chosen the latter.
2023-04-06 17:53:48 @AmandaAskell @JesseDodge @_andrew_griffin @jjvincent Yeah but in this case I had been crying to Jesse about how I totally solved this very important mystery and no one cared and I didn't even get a single like.

2023-04-06 02:03:33 @andrewthesmart @ShannonVallor @ayahbdeir @willie_agnew It's about the prioritization of different values in development. Which is the priority: providing mechanisms for people to connect during a natural disaster (social good), or releasing a system that provides correct information in a life-critical situation (responsible AI)?
2023-04-06 01:59:22 @ShannonVallor @ayahbdeir @willie_agnew Yes, there's what it /can be/, but there's also what it /is/. So one question is whether there's a different priority set between the two groupings. But to your point, I think what happens next with these terms is important.

2023-03-24 21:22:19 @Miles_Brundage The problem is that there's some rhetoric coming out of SV that seems to be conflating the latter with the former. Baby shouldn't be thrown out w bathwater, etc: A lot of things are pretty damn knowable! And some people are better at it than others, which is a nuance many miss.
2023-03-24 21:19:48 @Miles_Brundage There is *definitely* a massive difference between saying you have a kind of "sixth sense" and can predict all main details of the future vs. simply being able to extrapolate patterns and make reasonable predictions about likely future occurrences.
2023-03-24 21:16:55 @Miles_Brundage I *think* you've been implying (or directly stating) that no one can predict what'll happen with AI, but it's a blanket statement that isn't true when applied to details. Then further, if they recognize foresight, they're delusional, which is kinda oddly mean/wrong from my view.

2023-03-24 21:07:38 @struthious There's kind of no way to make progress when you can't agree on a foundation where 2 people looking at different things are seeing different things.
2023-03-24 21:05:57 @struthious These interactions remind me a lot of a "Theory of Mind" test, where you show 2 people different things and ask one of them what the *other* sees. Some people's answers amount to "the other person sees what *I* see", as opposed to "the other person sees what's in front of them".
2023-03-24 21:00:51 @struthious Putting my Jeff hat on, he'd likely say it wasn't proprietary, which would mean you just had to know where to look, but knowing where to look is of course informed by being Google-internal, which I guess he would then disagree with because he isn't visualizing being external.

2023-03-23 20:15:20 @jjvincent That's an interesting point. The examples above are all *G*UI. Command line isn't Graphic at all -- kinda a different beast.

2023-03-19 01:33:17 @dkaushik96 @mark_riedl @deliprao @AmandaAskell @emilymbender That's math, which is a bit different than language. I do think an LLM could have generated "I think, therefore I am" independently of Descartes.

2023-03-18 19:17:52 By and large, are AI journalists still using Twitter as their main social media (and not something else)? Academia + News have been my main reasons for using Twitter. Now much of Academia is Mastodon'ing. What's up with the journalists, are you all somewhere else by any chance?
2023-03-18 19:15:48 The signal:noise ratio on Twitter has *massively* decreased, and I'm stuck seeing uninformed takes from self-confident, often-hostile, jerkfaces. It really crummies-up my day.

2023-03-16 23:26:48 @jachiam0 Some of my influence on this in outward G writing is, e.g., https://t.co/gN76kootAN, and that is barely touching the surface of what robust feedback mechanisms post-deployment could be. It's important to point out the blind spot so that it stops being one. https://t.co/okRZUyoy9F
2023-03-16 23:16:39 @jachiam0 This contrast -- for someone like me, who has worked internally within a tech-company surveillance culture to motivate the need for robust user feedback mechanisms -- is pretty jarring.
2023-03-16 23:14:17 @jachiam0 Monitoring users is indeed a type of user surveillance. For me, the problem is a *lack* of focus on mechanisms for "humanity" (using OpenAI parlance), while there *is* a focus on mechanisms for OpenAI power.
2023-03-16 23:12:07 @jachiam0 No, no one else in the thread provided a particularly relevant counter-example to the point I was making. (I can imagine a rabbit hole of disagreeing: Please don't make me explain what I'm *not* saying--that's infinite. Better use of time to try to understand what I *am* saying.)
2023-03-16 22:35:33 @jachiam0 "Does not include mechanism x" != "should not include mechanism y"
2023-03-16 22:11:13 These are not the people who can "elevate humanity".
2023-03-16 22:09:56 One of the most troubling aspects of OpenAI's GPT-4 tech report is the intense focus on user surveillance. While "monitoring" users in order to find issues is mentioned throughout, mechanisms for users to "report" issues themselves are completely absent.

2023-02-27 22:31:57 @jachiam0 @ManlikeMishap I think that after I went down a rabbit hole of mumbling to myself, where I ended up is that the distinction is in many ways philosophical, rather than there being an agreed upon line between "this is AGI this is not".
2023-02-27 22:30:23 @jachiam0 @ManlikeMishap Hmm, you added that "narrowly", which I intentionally left out. Agree the boundary is fuzzy, and yuh, it's something I talked about with them. I also explained how an AGI model could be used for narrow tasks (and indeed that's a function of AGI).
2023-02-27 21:43:51 @ManlikeMishap This might be conflating the GPT models (which aren't agreed upon as AGI models, but are less narrow) with ChatGPT, which (as name suggests), is tuned for Chat.

2023-02-15 22:26:48 @jjvincent An analogy is fungus, mold. You can see how mold pops up on the surface of bread
2023-02-15 22:18:49 @jjvincent We're kinda lucky right now because we have access to the raw(ish) superfice, which is a *pointer* to what's going on internally. As the superfice gets more altered, we lose the pointers, making it so much harder to track what the system has actually learned. (3/n)
2023-02-15 22:17:36 @jjvincent While the nature of the *output strings* will likely change (eg within a character limit and much more limited vocab), the internal workings that guide decisions on who's worth mentioning for what will still influence everything people see. (2/n)
2023-02-15 22:16:14 @jjvincent What does this mean? This means that learned associations between women and their bodies, for example (eg https://t.co/1N8YiZfpio), will be up against learned assoc. b/w men and their accomplishments. This influences who gets mentioned for accomplishments and who gets erased. 1/n
2023-02-15 22:11:51 @jjvincent The output will continue to be addressed based on this kind of public feedback, but fixes will likely be applied at the output-string level as opposed to the input-learning level. In other words, SOTA in fixing right now is relatively superficial

2023-02-08 19:49:34 @yoavgo Yeah, I guess it's funny, but I'm actually more annoyed by FT's response than by what actually happened with that ad being aired. I think because I already expected Google to put out dumb things in shiny packaging so it just seems normal.
2023-02-08 19:45:56 As a former nerdy/pedantic/Hermione-type quibbler, I take it as my responsibility to shoot down these "corrections" when they miss the forest for the trees. =P
2023-02-08 19:44:08 I bet you don't
2023-02-08 19:43:45 Not to mention how extra misleading this statement would be to a 9 year old, as the prompt asked for. I mean, do YOU even feel that the meanings of "some planet" and "any planet" are perfectly distinct?
2023-02-08 19:39:43 So, if we are to believe that Bard is communicating "like people do" -- which I believe to be part of the whole point (?) -- then yes, Bard got it wrong.
2023-02-08 19:39:23 So the fact that Bard said "a planet", not something like, "the 'Planet' class, as manifested via a specific planet instance" is simply because *people don't talk like that*.
2023-02-08 19:36:31 Even though the last example can be a *logical* translation, it's usu not what is meant. Because we communicate in language, not logic
2023-02-08 19:30:55 We DON'T tend to mean "show me any picture of an apple who hadn't had its picture taken before".
2023-02-08 19:29:36 So, it's very common to say things like "show me the first picture of an apple" when we mean "show me the first time THE apple was pictured", where "the" means something like "an instance of the 'apple' category"...
2023-02-08 19:27:22 When we communicate with language, we are taking into account the expectations of our interlocutor

2023-01-08 05:19:19 @emilymbender @IrisVanRooij In other words, I think we have ways of handling plagiarism, regardless of how the plagiarism happened. Ways of handling plagiarism include citing the source. But this does not at all address the **consent** issue, which is related but distinct.

2023-01-04 22:04:14 @thetalperry I think there will very shortly (this week?) be news articles covering a lot of this -- several people in these discussions are being asked for comment by different journalists. Curious to see what others link to as well!

2023-01-04 21:57:36 @thetalperry Yes, sure! Issues at play include: - Consent of the authors whose data is mined for training language models. - Value prioritization in the use of systems that generate novel writing. - Attribution of authors whose ideas are uniquely contributed by a text-writing system.

2023-01-04 19:23:00 Guys, please stop trying to convince yourselves or others that it's a good argument to say that using a language model to generate writing for you is no different from using autocorrect. It's not a good argument and it's distracting from the actual issues at play.
2023-01-04 19:08:02 @BrandonLive @yoavgo @icmlconf Is using Word or Microsoft Editor for writing indistinguishable from using an LLM? No? Ok, cool: then you recognize there is something distinct about using LLMs for writing.
2023-01-04 19:01:28 @ylecun @yoavgo @icmlconf Yeah, that one is a really good point. Whether the system is recognized as an author or recognized in some other obvious way, the clear attribution should be there.

2023-01-04 09:55:21 @rendu_a @samuelmcurtis @yoavgo @icmlconf Yeah, that seems like a reasonable thing to do.
2023-01-04 01:52:07 @sbmaruf @yoavgo @icmlconf I *think* you're trying to be insulting here? You had an opportunity to engage meaningfully with a scholar in a field you're interested in, but made a different choice, which I can't engage with further. Perhaps this will influence you to make better decisions in the future.
2023-01-04 01:48:37 @phenomecule @yoavgo @icmlconf All of these arguments fall apart upon reflection that people are using LLMs instead of x, conceding that there is something different about them (where x = whatever the reductive comparison du jour is: autocorrect, ngram, etc.)
2023-01-04 00:53:34 @samuelmcurtis @yoavgo @icmlconf In my opinion, all authors on a work should be credited as authors in some way. The form this credit takes is something we can start defining *now*, and may depend on the type of contribution from the hidden authors.
2023-01-04 00:49:43 @amaldorai @yoavgo @icmlconf This is an orthographic convention. An important aspect to keep in mind when considering similarities to content. Not to say orthography doesn't convey some kind of semantic content
2023-01-04 00:45:29 @sbmaruf @yoavgo @icmlconf If using your computer is the same as using an LLM, then no need to use an LLM.
2023-01-03 22:36:08 @yoavgo @icmlconf You sound confident but you are incorrect if you're implying it's not a tool composed of authored content by authors.

2023-01-03 21:44:35 @yoavgo @icmlconf If the language model is also included as an **author** then it should be fair game. Without that, using an LLM is a form of plagiarism: write the work you take credit for and don't take credit for work you don't write.

2022-12-30 20:06:07 Spent last night listening through 40+ Paul singles in the 70s-00s, and being weirdly upset that (at least publicly) people seem to only talk to him about the Beatles. He's such a cool bassist. Sorta sillily obsessed with Back to the Egg 1979 single rn: https://t.co/A7yeBU1JT9 https://t.co/9tMtLx15xG https://t.co/FM9foW8vKn

2022-12-28 21:39:50 @LeonDerczynski Have I been told by a man in power, almost without fail, that every project I've embarked on within CS is useless/pointless/dumb/etc? Yes.

2022-12-28 20:38:07 @yoavgo @CriticalAI @chrmanning Idk. There's something fundamental here about power differentials and the utility of those at the lower end of power differentials naming and describing what the differential is. The fact that you're seeing this as pro- vs anti- tech (not humanities) is kind of a case in point.

2022-12-28 19:53:31 @yoavgo @CriticalAI @chrmanning From my understanding of him, and commonalities to other people at Google in the Bay Area (not so much in Seattle), I think the following traits are relevant...and, importantly for the existence of the term, **common enough to need a term**...(6/n)
2022-12-28 19:52:11 @yoavgo @CriticalAI @chrmanning Although I'm still not solid on the cluster of characteristics commonly co-occurring for the term "techbro", I learned at Google that there was some agreement it applies to people like Jason Friedenfelds, lead of Google AI PR, who was not a mathy person. (5/n)
2022-12-28 19:48:52 @yoavgo @CriticalAI @chrmanning One of her points, I think, is that we develop slang terms to capture sets of characteristics that are (1) commonly clustering/co-occurring
2022-12-28 19:46:59 @yoavgo @CriticalAI @chrmanning then as similar characteristics began gaining recognition again alongside people advancing in tech and medicine, the term use grew and then massively surpassed its previous frequency. (3/n)
2022-12-28 19:46:05 @yoavgo @CriticalAI @chrmanning Apparently it was used as a way to describe a set of characteristics often associated with "yuppies" (1980s). Then as "yuppie"ism died down, so too did the use of the word as an epithet
2022-12-28 19:44:46 @yoavgo @CriticalAI @chrmanning Sorta related, I had a really interesting chat with Harriett Jernigan at Stanford when I visited on the evolution of the terms "douche"/"douchebag" as epithets. (1/n)

2022-12-20 02:11:02 We will likely get to a place where there is a ChatSearch app that provides reasonable information. But it will require a fundamental change in how we train models like ChatGPT: 9/n
2022-12-20 02:03:40 Crudely, what this means is that ChatGPT is in a stage that's similar to the early days of web search: Yes it can give a lot of information, no there is not a great match between what you want and useful or reliable results. 8/n
2022-12-20 02:01:55 But with ChatGPT, this traceability is erased. The connections-between-sites that has been the bedrock of uncovering (somewhat) reliable information on the web is removed. 7/n
2022-12-20 01:59:06 This breakthrough was built on the *traceability* of information from the web: the linking between sources and their content. 6/n
2022-12-20 01:49:46 But there was a fundamental breakthrough in Search tech with the implementation of PageRank. With PageRank, the fact that websites link to one another could be used to identify which websites were *the most* linked to. The *most linked* sites are the ones people tend to want. 5/n https://t.co/yqyNT88V9e
2022-12-20 01:42:00 That's similar to where we are with ChatGPT today. Except, the websites are erased, and instead you get snippets of likely response text extracted from different websites. 4/n
2022-12-20 01:38:45 A web search query (roughly) meant putting in a sequence of text as a query, and getting back websites with the most likely sequences of text following your query. 3/n
2022-12-20 01:36:04 Before PageRank, a search would return a slew of websites of mixed utility, quality, and veracity. The results were directly tied to matches between what you queried and the text on the pages. 2/n

2022-12-17 23:49:32 @neilturkewitz @alexhanna @SashaMTL @huggingface @spawning_ @kortizart @FlyingTrilobite Not sure what this is saying, although I do agree it would be great to convince CC to avoid contributing to artists' precarity. Not sure how else to do it
2022-12-17 23:47:21 @neilturkewitz @alexhanna @SashaMTL @huggingface @spawning_ @kortizart @FlyingTrilobite Unfortunately ML development isn't chock-full of ethical actors... Either way, if your goal is to "beat" SOTA by our various (broken) metrics, you cannot do it yet unless you have large data. And the source for that --right now-- is CC.
2022-12-17 23:44:52 @neilturkewitz @alexhanna @SashaMTL @huggingface @spawning_ @kortizart @FlyingTrilobite There really aren't other services. Common Crawl is the not-secret hidden force behind modern ML datasets, which pull from CC and then (sometimes) filter.
2022-12-17 23:43:12 @neilturkewitz @alexhanna @SashaMTL @huggingface @spawning_ @kortizart @FlyingTrilobite The way modern ML training works is *so* broken. But it can't be fixed by explaining the issues and asking ML developers just not to develop, because they do indeed just say "no".
2022-12-17 23:42:30 @neilturkewitz @alexhanna @SashaMTL @huggingface @spawning_ @kortizart @FlyingTrilobite Right, but what you're asking isn't "just say no", you're asking AI companies like Stability AI not to exist: They would not exist if Common Crawl didn't exist.

2022-12-17 21:52:22 @neilturkewitz @SashaMTL @huggingface @spawning_ Yes, I agree. To do this in a way that fundamentally changes the field, we need to get at the SOURCE. And this means in many cases Common Crawl and laws that permit its unconsented distribution.

2022-12-08 20:26:28 @BlancheMinerva @RishiBommasani @WilliamBarrHeld @adjiboussodieng Yeah, ecology is definitely a treasure trove for diversity metrics. Was just discussing Shannon-Wiener diversity index as one of the most "basic" with @SashaMTL . Will go down that path some more. =). Thanks!
2022-12-08 20:20:38 @RishiBommasani @WilliamBarrHeld @judyhshen Oh, there's definitely a ton of sources for diversity measurements, predating us (going back to at least early 1900s). I'm searching for "the most basic", with a citation. You're super relevant for what I'm working on due to your Instrinsic Evaluation paper.

2022-10-30 19:43:18 @TheZachMueller @jackclarkSF Cool . I was wondering for a moment if Jack was messing w us, like sliding in a totally random phrase and seeing if it stuck."I totally _stirred the batter/popped the cork/shined the shoe_ on this one!"Except "shit the bed" was surprisingly vulgar so I figured must be real.
2022-10-30 19:27:52 @jackclarkSF Is "I totally shit the bed" a saying?

2022-10-07 19:11:32 @Abebab I usually don't respond to those "just a coffee"/"have a chat"/"pick your brain". But when I do, which is usually because (eg) my mom needs dental work and I don't work at a fancy big tech company anymore to pay for it, I give my rates.A "pick my brain" sesh is at least $500.
2022-10-07 19:08:54 So @SashaMTL just came up with a really simple and elegant solution to do counterfactual/perturbations with generated images -- relevant to bias -- and I can't wait for her to tell people about it.
2022-10-07 18:56:18 Like many women scientists, I would be completely marginalized and erased if it weren't for people in positions of influence advocating for me.I'm so grateful, and very lucky, and reminding myself how important it is to advocate for other women when I can.
2022-10-07 18:54:34 Like many women scientists, my opportunities almost never come based on the work I do, or my qualifications.Like many women, to have opportunities where I'm qualified, people have to actively advocate for me.In this case, @IreneSolaiman helped connect behind the scenes.

2022-09-30 17:55:49 @WaltonStevenj @dlowd I imagine it will be a few years until we're at a point where it's super easy for anyone to create a lethal weapon based on a description.And: It will be here in a few years.By default, the response is "do nothing": I argue that doing something might be good.

2022-09-30 17:50:30 @dlowd In other words, *current* regulation on weapons will need to be *updated* in order to have the same control given how easy weapon creation will soon become.
2022-09-30 17:49:29 @dlowd Countries where owning a gun is difficult/illegal don't have the volume of gun violence as countries where having a gun is super easy.-->
2022-09-30 17:47:18 @dlowd All of the above--isn't binary "this is worrisome/this isn't" (as you know). My perspective is the numbers/how likely things become.Knives can cause mortal harm.Knives AND guns can cause (more) mortal harm.Knives AND guns that can't be tracked can cause (more more) mortal harm

2022-09-11 23:01:21 @_joaogui1 @natolambert When talking about ML models and companies, this is the difference between open sourcing a model "for free" (indirectly to profit) vs paywalling it (directly to profit).
2022-09-11 22:59:05 @_joaogui1 @natolambert I was thinking of this kind of thing: https://t.co/PiQ1FWl6P3Basically, a company (by design) makes profit. When they put out "free" stuff, it serves the role of, for example, attracting more potential customers in order to profit. So "free" services are indirectly for profit.

2022-09-11 22:33:27 @natolambert @_joaogui1 "Paywalled" is definitely a relevant one, although I feel like it gets at a different angle? "Direct-to-profit" describes a method of development whereas "paywalled" describes a state of an available model (maybe?)Something feels fundamentally different about the 2.

2022-08-25 21:24:12 @lilianedwards @MLuczak @timnitGebru @AlexCEngler @datacontrovers1 Yes. I was just thinking about one avenue of AI ethics work being building coalitions for the rights of content creators. Musicians have things like ASCAP. Anyone who creates content online should have a body they can belong to that organizes and asserts creator rights.

2022-07-01 23:26:50 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale This is a false dichotomy.And again abt sociopolitical processes. Transparency artifacts are an object within the processes, specifically functioning to open up more options (not to limit them), and largely designed to open up more culturally-informed paths.
2022-07-01 23:22:37 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale It's about carving the paths forward from the path we're currently on. If you require another path that's blocked by a wall, you're going to have to first provide the tools to dig through the wall.
2022-07-01 23:20:52 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale I think that point misses the realities of trying to change tech structures. You can't say "do harm remediation, not documentation" if you want something to change. What works is to say, "Hey, you know how you document things, and also launch things? Well check out this..."
2022-07-01 23:18:52 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale Yeah, this is I think the major point of disagreement.Documentation artifacts that many have been working on, incl. MCs, are part of a much a larger picture of fundamental structural change. They're critical at this point in time *towards* the goals that many of us share.
2022-07-01 23:15:42 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale Ah, but they are part of a timeline. They do work today towards new work tomorrow. Once we have transparency artifacts, we're able to further open up accountability processes. As we further open up accountability processes, we're able to hold people/orgs accountable.
2022-07-01 23:12:40 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale Given the ongoing work on transparency and lowering access/knowledge barriers, what's the difference you're seeing here between "being burdened with" and "having the option to"?
2022-07-01 23:09:39 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale Maybe you're reading "can" as "have to"/"must"?
2022-07-01 23:05:28 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale ...while also being introduced by people who are in CS (obviously) and thus come from a CS perspective in an attempt to bridge the CS world with the rest of the world.
2022-07-01 23:04:23 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale I agree it doesn't solve them, and I also agree that "solving cultural harm" is distinct from "writing a documentation web page". But ideally such documentation takes into account a lot of relevant background (foreground) problems, and I'm saying that they do...
2022-07-01 23:00:54 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale ...These are objects that are working towards transparency, not towards opacity. Yes, none of this work is perfect or finished. But no, the work has not relied on opacity.
2022-07-01 22:59:38 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale That's not true?Many are working towards a world where transparency artifacts -- such as MCs, etc., -- exist in a world where tech is used only WITH knowledge and consent.There is nothing about them that requires lack of consent (?) from subjects harmed by technology.
2022-07-01 22:56:35 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale You are speaking to critical cultural and structural issues and processes, not the work being done on widening transparency and accountability, which in many ways seem aligned with your goals rather than relevant targets of your critique.
2022-07-01 22:53:36 @bengansky @jackayline @FrankPasquale But pointing to MCs as the thing you are critiquing with these words feels like pointing to a banana as the thing you are critiquing with these words. Removing the MC target, the words you are saying make sense, represent ideas shared/articulated by many in the FAccT community.

2022-06-13 02:52:34 @kristintynski @aislingcrean @emilymbender @nitashatiku The questions you're posing won't really have answers, though--at least not answers that would make sense to me. They can be thought exercises, but that's not something I'm going to be really helpful with. It's not really my role in all of this anyway.
2022-06-13 02:44:05 @kristintynski @aislingcrean @emilymbender @nitashatiku I think many questions are worth asking.
2022-06-13 00:56:03 @kristintynski @gwern I think your q might be better positioned to shed some light if it were to refocus away from science and certainty, to faith. Given what we've seen, "can you have faith that ... xyz". This is where I think the different ways people are seeing this becomes more clear.
2022-06-13 00:52:29 @kristintynski @gwern That question is jumping from smthn like "disprove the null hypothesis" to something like "disprove the alternative hypothesis". And that means your q is somewhat wandering outside of basic scientific method practices that are really helpful for discovery.
2022-06-13 00:46:52 @KathrynECramer And human social constructs. A discussion abt communication more generally is a much much larger discussion. Luckily (?) in this case, we're already bounded by human language and what that is *in particular*.

2022-06-12 03:42:17 6. So then what happens? What intents will be perceived (whether or not we agree on the consciousness)? And what is the response to those intents?
2022-06-12 03:37:46 5. The thing I keep coming back to is what happens next. If one person perceives consciousness today, then more will tomorrow. There won't be a point of agreement any time soon: We'll have people who think AI is conscious and people who think AI is not conscious, &
2022-06-12 00:20:37 4. It's modeling how people express communicative intent in the form of text strings. This is distinct from developing intent itself.
2022-06-12 00:18:30 3. What, then, is a model that has never learned how to have communicative intent doing when it *seems to have communicative intent*?
2022-06-12 00:17:10 2. Large Language Models (LLMs) are not developed in a social context. They are developed in an observational context. They see how *other people* communicate. What does this mean? It means LLMs never learn communicative intent. Minimally, they have no practice.
2022-06-12 00:13:36 1 Human language is fundamentally *social*. Not observational, isolated from us as we develop. We create it and dive into it with others. It is via this interaction--communication with another being, back and forth (in whatever form)--that we come to perceive minds of others.

2022-06-10 18:48:48 @tallinzen Actually that other poll question could be "who do you think did more work *on this specific paper*?".
2022-06-10 18:47:31 @tallinzen I was pondering that as well and wondering what the poll might look like if I further added that in. I personally think the latter. But another poll worth asking is "who do you think did more work?" 2nd or last.
2022-06-10 18:28:49 For a paper with ~5 authors, who do you think did more work to help the paper be accepted (between the 2 choices below)?

2022-06-08 23:03:11 @raphaelmilliere @GaryMarcus Are all of these self-supervised models trained on mass scrapes of web data?If "web data" is key, I think it's a bit important to call that out, rather than sweeping it under the rug...To sweep is to obscure the very serious issues around, eg, lack of informed consent...(1/2)
2022-06-08 22:20:30 @raphaelmilliere Yeah, that's an important point.
2022-06-08 21:47:25 @jackclarkSF @alexhern @HaydnBelfield @huggingface @BigscienceW ...and what would need to exist for that to happen is still very shaky. (2/2)
2022-06-08 21:46:04 @jackclarkSF @alexhern @HaydnBelfield @huggingface We've been thinking about this more in the context of data than models, within @BigscienceW (recent paper: https://t.co/2hgSZhxpzr), where distributed "data custodians" play a key role. This is a first step -- the question of extending this to models... (1/2)
2022-06-08 21:40:46 @jackclarkSF @alexhern @HaydnBelfield Humans do have an innate concept of privacy, though. Historical work that recently @IreneSolaiman and @unsojo have been keying in on.
2022-06-08 21:00:09 @raphaelmilliere Yesterday my interns offhandedly referred to "parent models" in HF and it struck me as kind of brilliant.There's also of course "initialized models" and other sort of more neutral terms less tied to power.
2022-06-08 20:36:41 @raphaelmilliere I think I first came across it in the context of VGG (so ca. 2015?), but I don't know that anyone ever said "we introduce the term base model....". It was just sort of the clear generic term for what it was.
2022-06-08 20:29:28 @raphaelmilliere It's interesting to think about why self-supervision is a critical component of these kinds of models. I'm not sure I understand why it is or should be.
2022-06-08 20:01:48 Reminder to everyone starting to publish in ML: "Foundation models" is *not* a recognized ML term

2022-11-21 18:48:02 @sergia_ch @vlanx0 @le_science4all @timnitGebru @LilithByTheSea @kiraIeigh @ylecun I really love the idea, but we'd first have to establish that people who come to learn from the debate would indeed learn, or change their views. We don't have strong evidence that this is possible.
2022-11-21 18:46:34 @sergia_ch @vlanx0 @le_science4all @timnitGebru @LilithByTheSea @kiraIeigh That's a wonderful idea if we're dealing with people who can be informed by evidence that's different than their own views.

2022-11-21 18:48:02 @sergia_ch @vlanx0 @le_science4all @timnitGebru @LilithByTheSea @kiraIeigh @ylecun I really love the idea, but we'd first have to establish that people who come to learn from the debate would indeed learn, or change their views. We don't have strong evidence that this is possible.
2022-11-21 18:46:34 @sergia_ch @vlanx0 @le_science4all @timnitGebru @LilithByTheSea @kiraIeigh That's a wonderful idea if we're dealing with people who can be informed by evidence that's different than their own views. But in practice, people in power within tech who don't see Galactica as problematic won't come to see it as problematic. No amount of evidence matters.

2022-12-08 20:26:28 @BlancheMinerva @RishiBommasani @WilliamBarrHeld @adjiboussodieng Yeah, ecology is definitely a treasure trove for diversity metrics. Was just discussing Shannon-Wiener diversity index as one of the most "basic" with @SashaMTL . Will go down that path some more. =). Thanks!
2022-12-08 20:20:38 @RishiBommasani @WilliamBarrHeld @judyhshen Oh, there's definitely a ton of sources for diversity measurements, predating us (going back to at least early 1900s). I'm searching for "the most basic", with a citation. You're super relevant for what I'm working on due to your Instrinsic Evaluation paper.
2022-12-08 20:14:33 @adjiboussodieng @WilliamBarrHeld @RishiBommasani This seems a good source for earlier measurements of diversity as well. https://t.co/46tbjnlj0w (also of course all the ecology literature)
2022-12-08 20:08:56 @WilliamBarrHeld @RishiBommasani Now I'm wondering if the best reference for using entropy for diversity is actually @adjiboussodieng !
2022-12-08 20:04:38 @WilliamBarrHeld @RishiBommasani Yeah, great call! @RishiBommasani , we are citing you a ton, super grateful for your input.

2022-12-08 19:54:17 Tag maybe @adjiboussodieng -- looked through your paper but couldn't find a "this is most generic"/"first"/"basic" kinda thing.
