  • Fortunately containers can get bigger =)

    While we aren’t all the same, there’s a difference between things that require holding 8 complicated things in mind at once, and things that require a little language learning and the intelligence to solve a crossword. This is closer to the latter - like doing a crossword in Spanish. You need to know a bunch of little things, but learning them is basically all tedium and not brilliant insights. (Taking these puzzles, creating a dozen new variants, and solving all of those probably does require managing a lot of complexity. But to understand the work of others, is not so bad)












  • Surprised nobody mentioned this: Most of these models use tokenization; they group words into groups of symbols like “ea” and “the” and “anti” - they don’t pick which key to press for the text, they pick which bunch of keys to press. These are called tokens. I believe there are tokens it just can’t output, or tokens that are extremely unlikely. I could imagine that “etc.” and “…” are tokens with relatively high probabilities, but perhaps “etc…” doesn’t break into a nice set of them? (or the tokens it can be broken into all have extremely low weights for the model).

    It’s very weird to me that you’re only listing loud things children do… Like, have you ever been around a sleeping child? Do they bother you? What about in a classroom, watching a movie, or running in the distance (out of earshot)?

    Average volume of a child is higher than adults, but only by a factor of 2 or so. And their noises are interpretable, you can definitely figure out what they mean, unlike the adult noises.
