People who have put next to 0 time into understanding generative pre-trained transformers: It's just PR bullshit!
People who have looked into how it works: This has more applications than previously thought.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
This has more applications than previously thought.
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I haven't watched a lot of two-minute papers, but this video is very misleading. Simulated environments have been used for years to speed up DeepRL. The only ChatGPT/LLM portion was about defining a scoring mechanism and there video gives no indication of if it did a better job or not, not to mention the problem the LLM was solving is one that's been studied for decades, which reduces the "it generalizes better".
I'm not saying LLMs have a lot of potential, but that video isn't really supportive of that stance.
