(1/n) Since its publication in 2017, PPO has essentially become synonymous with RL. Today, we are excited to provide you with a better alternative - EPO.
lowkey i think ilya 30u30 needs an upgrade to 50u50 now btw if you go through all of these, you’ll know at least 70% of what matters today
In this thread I'll record some brief impressions from trying to use o3/o4-mini (the new OpenAI models) for mathematical tasks.
The financial services industry is uniquely positioned to advocate for collaborative AI leadership, given its vested interest in trust, transparency and global cooperation, writes @devnag of @tryquerypal, in @AmerBanker @BankThink.bit.ly/4jhAgvE
pretty mind-blowing fact I just learned about transformer language models: the positional embeddings don't really do anything. you can just get rid of them and the model still works just as well sounds impossible, doesn't it? turns out standard LLMs aren't actually…
Simply, no. I've been looking at my old results from doing RL with "verifiable" rewards (math puzzle games, python code to pass unit tests) starting from 2019 with GPT-1/2 to 2024 with Qwen Math Deepseek's success likely lies in the base models improving, the RL is constant

Ladies, has your Christmas vacation been ruined by the Deepseek launch? You may be entitled to compensation.
It's a bit sad and confusing that LLMs ("Large Language Models") have little to do with language; It's just historical. They are highly general purpose technology for statistical modeling of token streams. A better name would be Autoregressive Transformers or something. They…
the cathedrals in code and hardware are invisible to people. those who deeply understand that know the wonder that they hold in their hands to post this tweet instead of a slab of glass and metal.
