  • In this episode from new podcast Emergent Behavior, host @Ate-a-Pi interviews the co-founders of Prophetic AI to learn how they're using AI to facilitate lucid dreaming. Prophetic had come up in the recent Cognitive Revolution conversation with Dean W. Ball about brain computer interfaces, and Nathan had them on the list of companies to invite on the show, so it was really fun to discover that Ate-a-Pi had already done an interview with them right around the same time.

  • In this podcast, Nathan and Nick dive deep into the data requirements for achieving Artificial General Intelligence. They explore the current paradigms, the role of data in approximating intelligence, and the scaling trends for GPT models. The discussion covers various datasets, from email and Twitter to YouTube and genomic data, as they analyze the feasibility of reaching the target of 100 trillion high-quality tokens. While the bull case suggests an abundance of data, the bear case highlights the limits on high-quality data, prompting a fascinating exploration of what makes data good for AI and the potential for AI to generate its own data.

  • In this episode, we dive deep into the inner workings of large language models with Professor David Bau and grad students Koyena Pal and Eric Todd from Northeastern University. Koyena shares insights from her Future Lens paper, which shows that even mid-sized language models think multiple tokens ahead. Eric discusses the fascinating concept of Function Vectors - complex patterns of activity spread across transformer layers that enable in-context learning. Professor Bau connects the dots between these projects and the lab's broader interpretability research agenda, identifying key abstractions that link low-level computations to higher-level model behaviors.SPONSORS:Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is a single platform for your infrastructure, database, application development, and AI needs.

  • In this episode, Nathan sits down with Adam Gleave, founder of Far AI, for a masterclass on AI exploitability. They dissect Adam's findings on vulnerabilities in GPT-4's fine-tuning and Assistant PIs, Far AI's work exposing exploitable flaws in "superhuman" Go AIs through innovative adversarial strategies, accidental jailbreaking by naive developers during fine-tuning, and more.
