We are machine-makers. When we have a problem, we make a machine to solve it. When we have many adjacent problems, we make a machine that makes the machine that solves each. And so on. There is nothing more to life.
The bottleneck is amplifying the influence of sane thinking on sheep behavior in the near future and language models have come in clutch. Or perhaps not. We'll see.
@davidbessis I do value it and I'd be happy to fund it privately one day. I don't understand how you can justify shaping public opinion to trick random people into funding it. You called me a loser, now I'll call you a communist. You are French, after all.
@davidbessis Yes, of course. First by me, then tutors.
Could you please make your tweets denser? It's not very useful to go back and forth like this. What are you getting at?

Would language models based on diffusion with a more complete covariance structure be better at humor than autoregressive models? Can AR models trained in reverse direction reveal something about humor? A joke's structure seems to be: ABC likely, BC less likely than BD where C is the punchline.
So, you're looking for speech patterns that would have required an LLM to have some pre-thoughts. The text that gains the highest surprisal multiple with the least surprising pre-thought. @HiFromMichaelV
