Efficient Streaming Language Models with Attention Sinks (Paper Explained) 17.10.2023

#llm #ai #chatgpt How does one run inference for a generative autoregressive language model that has been trained with a fixed context size? Streaming LLMs combine the performance of windowed attention, but avoid the drop in performance by using attention sinks - an interesting phenomenon where the token at position 0 acts as an absorber of "extra" attention. OUTLINE: 0:00 - Introduction...

Promptbreeder: Self-Referential Self-Improvement Via Prompt Evolution (Paper Explained) 17.10.2023

#ai #promptengineering #evolution Promptbreeder is a self-improving self-referential system for automated prompt engineering. Give it a task description and a dataset, and it will automatically come up with appropriate prompts for the task. This is achieved by an evolutionary algorithm where not only the prompts, but also the mutation-prompts are improved over time in a population-based, diversity...

Retentive Network: A Successor to Transformer for Large Language Models (Paper Explained) 05.10.2023

#ai #retnet #transformers Retention is an alternative to Attention in Transformers that can both be written in a parallel and in a recurrent fashion. This means the architecture achieves training parallelism while maintaining low-cost inference. Experiments in the paper look very promising. OUTLINE: 0:00 - Intro 2:40 - The impossible triangle 6:55 - Parallel vs sequential 15:35 - Retention mechani...

Reinforced Self-Training (ReST) for Language Modeling (Paper Explained) 05.10.2023

#ai #rlhf #llm ReST uses a bootsrap-like method to produce its own extended dataset and trains on ever higher-quality subsets of it to improve its own reward. The method allows for re-using the same generated data multiple times and thus has an efficiency advantage with respect to Online RL techniques like PPO. Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.08998 Abstract: Reinforcement learning from human fee...

Tree-Ring Watermarks: Fingerprints for Diffusion Images that are Invisible and Robust (Explained) 28.08.2023

#stablediffusion #ai #watermark Watermarking the outputs of generative models is usually done as a post-processing step on the model outputs. Tree-Ring Watermarks are applied in the latent space at the beginning of a diffusion process, which makes them nearly undetectable, robust to strong distortions, and only recoverable by the model author. It is a very promising technique with applications pot...
