“I regret to announce that the meme Turing Test has been passed. LLMs produce funnier memes than the average human, as judged by humans. Humans working with AI get no boost (a finding that is coming up often in AI-creativity work) The best human memers still beat AI, however. https://x.com/emollick/status/1901431681279475808

“So far, as LLM model size gets larger, it seems to have a direct effect on reducing known problems with LLMs. Bigger LLMs hallucinate less, show less bias, and are less sensitive to prompting style, among other things. Not that these problems go away, but they do decrease.” / X https://x.com/emollick/status/1901776990962630666

“Exciting job I’m hiring for – Policy Demos! We’ve often found the best way to help people understand powerful AI technology is to ‘show, not tell’, and the best way to do this is to demonstrate the real capabilities of real systems. Help us do that! https://x.com/jackclarkSF/status/1901789490437669370

“@willccbb My cynical take is that: to the extent that these are better, they’re not really LLMs anymore. Folks couldn’t build better LLMs, so they started building LLM systems (CoT) and shifted the goal posts accordingly. The community could always build those, though not as scaled.

“There was controversy over the way the big AI companies did image generation a year ago. Now Grok can make pictures of famous people, Gemini can remove people or watermarks from photos, etc. Is it a shift in responsibility from firms to users? A lack of negative impact?

“I suspect that a lot of “AI training” in companies and schools has become obsolete in the last few months As models get larger, the prompting tricks that used to be useful are no longer good; reasoners don’t play well with Chain-of-Thought; hallucination rates have dropped, etc.” / X https://x.com/emollick/status/1901011090068197484
