History and Basics of Language Models: How Transformers Changed AI Forever - and Led to Neuro-sama
I have seen a lot of misunderstandings and myths about Neuro-sama's language model. I have decided to write a short post, going into the history of and current state of large language models and providing some explanation about how they work, and how Neuro-sama works! To begin, let's start with some history.
Before the beginning
Before the language models we are used to today, models like RNNs (Recurrent Neural Networks) and LSTMs (Long Short-Term Memory networks) were used for natural language processing, but they had a lot of limitations. Both of these architectures process words sequentially, meaning they read text one word at a time in order. This made them struggle with long sentences, they could almost forget the beginning by the time they reach the end.
Another major limitation was computational efficiency. Since RNNs and LSTMs process text one step at a time, they can't take full advantage of modern parallel computing harware like GPUs. All these fundamental limitations mean that these models could never be nearly as smart as today's models.
The beginning of modern language models
In 2017, a paper titled "Attention is All You Need" introduced the transformer architecture. It was received positively for its innovation, but no one truly knew just how important it is going to be. This paper is what made modern language models possible.
The transformer's key innovation was the attention mechanism, which allows the model to focus on the most relevant parts of a text. Instead of processing words sequentially, transformers process all words at once, capturing relationships between words no matter how far apart they are in the text. This change made models faster, and better at understanding context.
The full potential of transformers became clearer over the next few years as researchers scaled them up.
The Scale of Modern Language Models
A major factor in an LLM's performance is the number of parameters - which are like the model's "neurons" that store learned information. The more parameters, the more powerful the model can be. The first GPT (generative pre-trained transformer) model, GPT-1, was released in 2018 and had 117 million parameters. It was small and not very capable - but a good proof of concept. GPT-2 (2019) had 1.5 billion parameters - which was a huge leap in quality, but it was still really dumb compared to the models we are used to today. GPT-3 (2020) had 175 billion parameters, and it was really the first model that felt actually kinda smart. This model required 4.6 million dollars for training, in compute expenses alone.
Recently, models have become more efficient: smaller models can achieve similar performance to bigger models from the past. This efficiency means that smarter and smarter models can run on consumer hardware. However, training costs still remain high.
How Are Language Models Trained?
Pre-training: The model is trained on a massive dataset to predict the next token. A token is a piece of text a language model can process, it can be a word, word fragment, or character. Even training relatively small models with a few billion parameters requires trillions of tokens, and a lot of computational resources which cost millions of dollars.
Post-training, including fine-tuning: After pre-training, the model can be customized for specific tasks, like answering questions, writing code, casual conversation, etc. Certain post-training methods can help improve the model's alignment with certain values or update its knowledge of specific domains. This requires far less data and computational power compared to pre-training.
The Cost of Training Large Language Models
Pre-training models over a certain size requires vast amounts of computational power and high-quality data. While advancements in efficiency have made it possible to get better performance with smaller models, models can still require millions of dollars to train, even if they have far fewer parameters than GPT-3.
The Rise of Open-Source Language Models
Many language models are closed-source, you can't download or run them locally. For example ChatGPT models from OpenAI and Claude models from Anthropic are all closed-source.
However, some companies release a number of their models as open-source, allowing anyone to download, run, and modify them.
While the larger models can not be run on consumer hardware, smaller open-source models can be used on high-end consumer PCs.
An advantage of smaller models is that they have lower latency, meaning they can generate responses much faster. They are not as powerful as the largest closed-source models, but their accessibility and speed make them highly useful for some applications.
So What is Neuro-sama?
Basically no details are shared about the model by Vedal, and I will only share what can be confidently concluded and only information that wouldn't reveal any sort of "trade secret". What can be known is that Neuro-sama would not exist without open-source large language models. Vedal can't train a model from scratch, but what Vedal can do - and can be confidently assumed he did do - is post-training an open-source model. Post-training a model on additional data can change the way the model acts and can add some new knowledge - however, the core intelligence of Neuro-sama comes from the base model she was built on. Since huge models can't be run on consumer hardware and would be prohibitively expensive to run through API, we can also say that Neuro-sama is a smaller model - which has the disadvantage of being less powerful, having more limitations, but has the advantage of low latency. Latency and cost are always going to pose some pretty strict limitations, but because LLMs just keep getting more efficient and better hardware is becoming more available, Neuro can be expected to become smarter and smarter in the future. To end, I have to at least mention that Neuro-sama is more than just her language model, though we have only talked about the language model in this post. She can be looked at as a system of different parts. Her TTS, her VTuber avatar, her vision model, her long-term memory, even her Minecraft AI, and so on, all come together to make Neuro-sama.
Wrapping up - Thanks for Reading!
This post was meant to provide a brief introduction to language models, covering some history and explaining how Neuro-sama can work. Of course, this post is just scratching the surface, but hopefully it gave you a clearer understanding about how language models function and their history!

Tumblr media
What is a Neural Network?
A neural network is a computational model inspired by the human brain’s structure and function. It is a key component of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, designed to recognize patterns and make decisions based on data. Neural networks are used in a wide range of applications, including image and speech recognition, natural language processing, and even autonomous systems like self-driving cars.
Structure of a Neural Network
A neural network consists of layers of interconnected nodes, known as neurons. These layers include:
Input Layer: Receives raw data and passes it into the network.
Hidden Layers: Perform complex calculations and transformations on the data.
Output Layer: Produces the final result or prediction.
Each neuron in a layer is connected to neurons in the next layer through weighted connections. These weights determine the importance of input signals, and they are adjusted during training to improve the model’s accuracy.
How Neural Networks Work?
Neural networks learn by processing data through forward propagation and adjusting their weights using backpropagation. This learning process involves:
Forward Propagation: Data moves from the input layer through the hidden layers to the output layer, generating predictions.
Loss Calculation: The difference between predicted and actual values is measured using a loss function.
Backpropagation: The network adjusts weights based on the loss to minimize errors, improving performance over time.
Types of Neural Networks-
Several types of neural networks exist, each suited for specific tasks:
Feedforward Neural Networks (FNN): The simplest type, where data moves in one direction.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN): Used for image processing and pattern recognition.
Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN): Designed for sequential data like time-series analysis and language processing.
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): Used for generating synthetic data, such as deepfake images.

i was going around thinking neural networks are basically stateless pure functions of their inputs, and this was a major difference between how humans think (i.e., that we can 'spend time thinking about stuff' and get closer to an answer without receiving any new inputs) and artificial neural networks. so I thought that for a large language model to be able to maintain consistency while spitting out a long enough piece of text, it would have to have as many inputs as there are tokens.
apparently i'm completely wrong about this! for a good while the state of the art has been using recurrent neural networks which allow the neuron state to change, with techniques including things like 'long short-term memory units' and 'gated recurrent units'. they look like a little electric circuit, and they combine the input with the state of the node in the previous step, and the way that the neural network combines these things and how quickly it forgets stuff is all something that gets trained at the same time as everything else. (edit: this is apparently no longer the state of the art, the state of the art has gone back to being stateless pure functions? so shows what i know. leaving the rest up because it doesn't necessarily depend too much on these particulars)
which means they can presumably create a compressed representation of 'stuff they've seen before' without having to treat the whole thing as an input. and it also implies they might develop something you could sort of call an 'emotional state', in the very abstract sense of a transient state that affects its behaviour.
I'm not an AI person, I like knowing how and why stuff works and AI tends to obfuscate that. but this whole process of 'can we build cognition from scratch' is kind of fascinating to see. in part because it shows what humans are really good at.
I watched this video of an AI learning to play pokémon...
youtube
over thousands of simulated game hours the relatively simple AI, driven by a few simple objectives (see new screens, level its pokémon, don't lose) learned to beat Brock before getting stuck inside the following cave. it's got a really adorable visualisation of thousands of AI characters on different runs spreading out all over the map. but anyway there's a place where the AI would easily fall off an edge and get stuck, unable to work out that it could walk a screen to the right and find out a one-tile path upwards.
for a human this is trivial: we learn pretty quickly to identify a symbolic representation to order the game world (this sprite is a ledge, ledges are one-way, this is what a gap you can climb looks like) and we can reason about it (if there is no exit visible on the screen, there might be one on the next screen). we can also formulate this in terms of language. maybe if you took a LLM and gave it some kind of chain of thought prompt, it could figure out how to walk out of that as well. but as we all know, LLMs are prone to propagating errors and hallucinating, and really bad at catching subtle logical errors.
other types of computer system like computer algebra systems and traditional style chess engines like stockfish (as opposed to the newer deep learning engines) are much better at humans at this kind of long chain of abstract logical inference. but they don't have access to the sort of heuristic, approximate guesswork approach that the large language models do.
it turns out that you kind of need both these things to function as a human does, and integrating them is not trivial. a human might think like 'oh I have the seed of an idea, now let me work out the details and see if it checks out' - I don't know if we've made AI that is capable of that kind of approach yet.
AIs are also... way slower at learning than humans are, in a qualified sense. that small squishy blob of proteins can learn things like walking, vision and language from vastly sparser input with far less energy than a neural network. but of course the neural networks have the cheat of running in parallel or on a faster processor, so as long as the rest of the problem can be sped up compared to what a human can handle (e.g. running a videogame or simulation faster), it's possible to train the AI for so much virtual time that it can surpass a human. but this approach only works in certain domains.
I have no way to know whether the current 'AI spring' is going to keep getting rapid results. we're running up against limits of data and compute already, and that's only gonna get more severe once we start running into mineral and energy scarcity later in this century. but man I would totally not have predicted the simultaneous rise of LLMs and GANs a couple years ago so, fuck knows where this is all going.

Mastering Neural Networks: A Deep Dive into Combining Technologies
How Can Two Trained Neural Networks Be Combined?
Introduction
In the ever-evolving world of artificial intelligence (AI), neural networks have emerged as a cornerstone technology, driving advancements across various fields. But have you ever wondered how combining two trained neural networks can enhance their performance and capabilities? Let’s dive deep into the fascinating world of neural networks and explore how combining them can open new horizons in AI.
Basics of Neural Networks
What is a Neural Network?
Neural networks, inspired by the human brain, consist of interconnected nodes or "neurons" that work together to process and analyze data. These networks can identify patterns, recognize images, understand speech, and even generate human-like text. Think of them as a complex web of connections where each neuron contributes to the overall decision-making process.
How Neural Networks Work
Neural networks function by receiving inputs, processing them through hidden layers, and producing outputs. They learn from data by adjusting the weights of connections between neurons, thus improving their ability to predict or classify new data. Imagine a neural network as a black box that continuously refines its understanding based on the information it processes.
Types of Neural Networks
From simple feedforward networks to complex convolutional and recurrent networks, neural networks come in various forms, each designed for specific tasks. Feedforward networks are great for straightforward tasks, while convolutional neural networks (CNNs) excel in image recognition, and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are ideal for sequential data like text or speech.
Why Combine Neural Networks?
Advantages of Combining Neural Networks
Combining neural networks can significantly enhance their performance, accuracy, and generalization capabilities. By leveraging the strengths of different networks, we can create a more robust and versatile model. Think of it as assembling a team where each member brings unique skills to tackle complex problems.
Applications in Real-World Scenarios
In real-world applications, combining neural networks can lead to breakthroughs in fields like healthcare, finance, and autonomous systems. For example, in medical diagnostics, combining networks can improve the accuracy of disease detection, while in finance, it can enhance the prediction of stock market trends.
Methods of Combining Neural Networks
Ensemble Learning
Ensemble learning involves training multiple neural networks and combining their predictions to improve accuracy. This approach reduces the risk of overfitting and enhances the model's generalization capabilities.
Bagging
Bagging, or Bootstrap Aggregating, trains multiple versions of a model on different subsets of the data and combines their predictions. This method is simple yet effective in reducing variance and improving model stability.
Boosting
Boosting focuses on training sequential models, where each model attempts to correct the errors of its predecessor. This iterative process leads to a powerful combined model that performs well even on difficult tasks.
Stacking
Stacking involves training multiple models and using a "meta-learner" to combine their outputs. This technique leverages the strengths of different models, resulting in superior overall performance.
Transfer Learning
Transfer learning is a method where a pre-trained neural network is fine-tuned on a new task. This approach is particularly useful when data is scarce, allowing us to leverage the knowledge acquired from previous tasks.
Concept of Transfer Learning
In transfer learning, a model trained on a large dataset is adapted to a smaller, related task. For instance, a model trained on millions of images can be fine-tuned to recognize specific objects in a new dataset.
How to Implement Transfer Learning
To implement transfer learning, we start with a pretrained model, freeze some layers to retain their knowledge, and fine-tune the remaining layers on the new task. This method saves time and computational resources while achieving impressive results.
Advantages of Transfer Learning
Transfer learning enables quicker training times and improved performance, especially when dealing with limited data. It’s like standing on the shoulders of giants, leveraging the vast knowledge accumulated from previous tasks.
Neural Network Fusion
Neural network fusion involves merging multiple networks into a single, unified model. This method combines the strengths of different architectures to create a more powerful and versatile network.
Definition of Neural Network Fusion
Neural network fusion integrates different networks at various stages, such as combining their outputs or merging their internal layers. This approach can enhance the model's ability to handle diverse tasks and data types.
Types of Neural Network Fusion
There are several types of neural network fusion, including early fusion, where networks are combined at the input level, and late fusion, where their outputs are merged. Each type has its own advantages depending on the task at hand.
Implementing Fusion Techniques
To implement neural network fusion, we can combine the outputs of different networks using techniques like averaging, weighted voting, or more sophisticated methods like learning a fusion model. The choice of technique depends on the specific requirements of the task.
Cascade Network
Cascade networks involve feeding the output of one neural network as input to another. This approach creates a layered structure where each network focuses on different aspects of the task.
What is a Cascade Network?
A cascade network is a hierarchical structure where multiple networks are connected in series. Each network refines the outputs of the previous one, leading to progressively better performance.
Advantages and Applications of Cascade Networks
Cascade networks are particularly useful in complex tasks where different stages of processing are required. For example, in image processing, a cascade network can progressively enhance image quality, leading to more accurate recognition.
Practical Examples
Image Recognition
In image recognition, combining CNNs with ensemble methods can improve accuracy and robustness. For instance, a network trained on general image data can be combined with a network fine-tuned for specific object recognition, leading to superior performance.
Natural Language Processing
In natural language processing (NLP), combining RNNs with transfer learning can enhance the understanding of text. A pre-trained language model can be fine-tuned for specific tasks like sentiment analysis or text generation, resulting in more accurate and nuanced outputs.
Predictive Analytics
In predictive analytics, combining different types of networks can improve the accuracy of predictions. For example, a network trained on historical data can be combined with a network that analyzes real-time data, leading to more accurate forecasts.
Challenges and Solutions
Technical Challenges
Combining neural networks can be technically challenging, requiring careful tuning and integration. Ensuring compatibility between different networks and avoiding overfitting are critical considerations.
Data Challenges
Data-related challenges include ensuring the availability of diverse and high-quality data for training. Managing data complexity and avoiding biases are essential for achieving accurate and reliable results.
Possible Solutions
To overcome these challenges, it’s crucial to adopt a systematic approach to model integration, including careful preprocessing of data and rigorous validation of models. Utilizing advanced tools and frameworks can also facilitate the process.

The Role of AI in Music Composition
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing numerous industries, and the music industry is no exception. At Sunburst SoundLab, we use different AI based tools to create music that unites creativity and innovation. But how exactly does AI compose music? Let's dive into the fascinating world of AI-driven music composition and explore the techniques used to craft melodies, rhythms, and harmonies.
Tumblr media
How AI Algorithms Compose Music
AI music composition relies on advanced algorithms that mimic human creativity and musical knowledge. These algorithms are trained on vast datasets of existing music, learning patterns, structures and styles. By analyzing this data, AI can generate new compositions that reflect the characteristics of the input music while introducing unique elements.
Machine Learning Machine learning algorithms, particularly neural networks, are crucial in AI music composition. These networks are trained on extensive datasets of existing music, enabling them to learn complex patterns and relationships between different musical elements. Using techniques like supervised learning and reinforcement learning, AI systems can create original compositions that align with specific genres and styles.
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) GANs consist of two neural networks – a generator and a discriminator. The generator creates new music pieces, while the discriminator evaluates them. Through this iterative process, the generator learns to produce music that is increasingly indistinguishable from human-composed pieces. GANs are especially effective in generating high-quality and innovative music.
Markov Chains Markov chains are statistical models used to predict the next note or chord in a sequence based on the probabilities of previous notes or chords. By analyzing these transition probabilities, AI can generate coherent musical structures. Markov chains are often combined with other techniques to enhance the musicality of AI-generated compositions.
Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) RNNs, and their advanced variant Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, are designed to handle sequential data, making them ideal for music composition. These networks capture long-term dependencies in musical sequences, allowing them to generate melodies and rhythms that evolve naturally over time. RNNs are particularly adept at creating music that flows seamlessly from one section to another.
Techniques Used to Create Melodies, Rhythms, and Harmonies
Melodies AI can analyze pitch, duration and dynamics to create melodies that are both catchy and emotionally expressive. These melodies can be tailored to specific moods or styles, ensuring that each composition resonates with listeners. Rhythms AI algorithms generate complex rhythmic patterns by learning from existing music. Whether it’s a driving beat for a dance track or a subtle rhythm for a ballad, AI can create rhythms that enhance the overall musical experience. Harmonies Harmony generation involves creating chord progressions and harmonizing melodies in a musically pleasing way. AI analyzes the harmonic structure of a given dataset and generates harmonies that complement the melody, adding depth and richness to the composition. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The role of AI in music composition is a testament to the incredible potential of technology to enhance human creativity. As AI continues to evolve, the possibilities for creating innovative and emotive music are endless.
Explore our latest AI-generated tracks and experience the future of music. 🎶✨

From Recurrent Networks to GPT-4: Measuring Algorithmic Progress in Language Models - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/from-recurrent-networks-to-gpt-4-measuring-algorithmic-progress-in-language-models-technology-org/
From Recurrent Networks to GPT-4: Measuring Algorithmic Progress in Language Models - Technology Org
In 2012, the best language models were small recurrent networks that struggled to form coherent sentences. Fast forward to today, and large language models like GPT-4 outperform most students on the SAT. How has this rapid progress been possible? 
Image credit: MIT CSAIL
In a new paper, researchers from Epoch, MIT FutureTech, and Northeastern University set out to shed light on this question. Their research breaks down the drivers of progress in language models into two factors: scaling up the amount of compute used to train language models, and algorithmic innovations. In doing so, they perform the most extensive analysis of algorithmic progress in language models to date.
Their findings show that due to algorithmic improvements, the compute required to train a language model to a certain level of performance has been halving roughly every 8 months. “This result is crucial for understanding both historical and future progress in language models,” says Anson Ho, one of the two lead authors of the paper. “While scaling compute has been crucial, it’s only part of the puzzle. To get the full picture you need to consider algorithmic progress as well.”
The paper’s methodology is inspired by “neural scaling laws”: mathematical relationships that predict language model performance given certain quantities of compute, training data, or language model parameters. By compiling a dataset of over 200 language models since 2012, the authors fit a modified neural scaling law that accounts for algorithmic improvements over time. 
Based on this fitted model, the authors do a performance attribution analysis, finding that scaling compute has been more important than algorithmic innovations for improved performance in language modeling. In fact, they find that the relative importance of algorithmic improvements has decreased over time. “This doesn’t necessarily imply that algorithmic innovations have been slowing down,” says Tamay Besiroglu, who also co-led the paper.
“Our preferred explanation is that algorithmic progress has remained at a roughly constant rate, but compute has been scaled up substantially, making the former seem relatively less important.” The authors’ calculations support this framing, where they find an acceleration in compute growth, but no evidence of a speedup or slowdown in algorithmic improvements.
By modifying the model slightly, they also quantified the significance of a key innovation in the history of machine learning: the Transformer, which has become the dominant language model architecture since its introduction in 2017. The authors find that the efficiency gains offered by the Transformer correspond to almost two years of algorithmic progress in the field, underscoring the significance of its invention.
While extensive, the study has several limitations. “One recurring issue we had was the lack of quality data, which can make the model hard to fit,” says Ho. “Our approach also doesn’t measure algorithmic progress on downstream tasks like coding and math problems, which language models can be tuned to perform.”
Despite these shortcomings, their work is a major step forward in understanding the drivers of progress in AI. Their results help shed light about how future developments in AI might play out, with important implications for AI policy. “This work, led by Anson and Tamay, has important implications for the democratization of AI,” said Neil Thompson, a coauthor and Director of MIT FutureTech. “These efficiency improvements mean that each year levels of AI performance that were out of reach become accessible to more users.”
“LLMs have been improving at a breakneck pace in recent years. This paper presents the most thorough analysis to date of the relative contributions of hardware and algorithmic innovations to the progress in LLM performance,” says Open Philanthropy Research Fellow Lukas Finnveden, who was not involved in the paper.
“This is a question that I care about a great deal, since it directly informs what pace of further progress we should expect in the future, which will help society prepare for these advancements. The authors fit a number of statistical models to a large dataset of historical LLM evaluations and use extensive cross-validation to select a model with strong predictive performance. They also provide a good sense of how the results would vary under different reasonable assumptions, by doing many robustness checks. Overall, the results suggest that increases in compute have been and will keep being responsible for the majority of LLM progress as long as compute budgets keep rising by ≥4x per year. However, algorithmic progress is significant and could make up the majority of progress if the pace of increasing investments slows down.”

They assume a linear relationship between input features and output labels, making them easy to interpret and computationally efficient. Common examples include linear regression for continuous outcomes and logistic regression for classification tasks.
Linear models serve as a foundation for more complex algorithms and are often used as linear models in machine learning​ projects. They are particularly effective when the data exhibits linear relationships and are widely employed in industries such as finance for credit scoring, marketing for customer segmentation, and healthcare for disease prediction.
Deep Learning Classification Models
Moving beyond linear models, deep learning classification models are designed to handle complex, non-linear relationships in data. These models are particularly effective in tasks like image classification, speech recognition, and natural language understanding. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are popular for image-related tasks, while Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Transformers are used for sequential data like text and speech.
Deep learning classification models require large amounts of data and significant computational power but excel at capturing intricate patterns that traditional models might miss. In India, many educational institutions and online training platforms now offer specialized courses on deep learning classification models, enabling learners to develop expertise and contribute to innovative AI solutions.
Conclusion
The landscape of artificial intelligence and deep learning training in India is vibrant and expanding rapidly. Whether you are a student, a working professional, or an entrepreneur, acquiring skills through artificial intelligence course in India or deep learning online training can significantly enhance your career prospects. Understanding foundational concepts like linear models in machine learning and mastering advanced deep learning classification models will empower you to develop intelligent systems capable of solving real-world problems.
