Are You in The Weights?

Yesterday I found out about a site called intheweights.com , which reveals which people are “stored” in the weights of large language models. Those “weights” are billions of numerical values by which these AI models encode their knowledge. If you show up in them, the model considered you relevant enough during training to recall without tools such as web search.

The site queries several models to figure out who a specific person is, combines the results, and assigns a strength score.  According to the leaderboard, the current maximum strength score is 998, awarded too a person called Charlize Theron (of whom I have never heard); number Two is Rudyard Kipling, apparently. I’m surprised the top isn’t Taylor Swift. I guess these weights change with time too.

Being a vain person I typed in my name and found this:

The only reason I can think of that I score so highly is all that scraping of this blog site over the last year or so. The weights are obviously influenced by how much material there is available online by or about the person.

Anyway, give it a try. Are you In The Weights?

P.S. A number of other “Peter Coles” characters are also listed under my entry, some of them as far as I can see totally fictitious.

#LLMs matter, but machine consciousness is a fantasy.

"The whole world is currently living through a transformation in the medium of thought and communication that may come to dwarf the arrival of alphabetic writing in the ancient Mediterranean or the printing press in early modern Europe. #LargeLanguageModels are not merely new tools for circulating ideas. One way or another they are helping to usher in an entirely new shape of #humanconsciousness.

Despite the violently tedious quality of their insufficiently prompted prose, I affirm the potential intellectual and logistical utility of large language models and other #machinelearning systems. They already have pragmatic value as scientific and philosophical research instruments. But I am polemically dismissive of the fantasy of #machineconsciousness."

New blog post: Is Gemini Still the Big Dog in the AI Yard?

A recent upset in the AI coding challenge has everyone talking, but what does it really mean for Google's ambitious #Gemini? It's a wake-up call, but also a chance to reassess what we truly expect from our digital co-pilots.

'#LargeLanguageModels, de achterliggende techniek van #chatbots, zien er misschien indrukwekkend uit, zegt ze. „Maar uiteindelijk is het gewoon fancy autocomplete.” Het is een computer die heel goed is in het voorspellen van het volgende woord in een zin, de recente snelle ontwikkelingen in #AI veranderen daar voor haar niets aan.'

'Het centrale inzicht in haar boek is dat voorspellingen over menselijk gedrag geen neutrale beschrijvingen zijn, maar verhulde bevelen en machtsuitoefening. Wanneer machthebbers of techbedrijven de toekomst voorspellen in grootse en meeslepende toekomstvisies, is dat eigenlijk een manier om precies die toekomst te dicteren. „Omdat voorspellingen op feiten lijken, schikken we ons er onbewust naar via anticiperende gehoorzaamheid, wat een self-fulfilling prophecy activeert.”

Véliz stelt dat een hoge voorspellende nauwkeurigheid over individuen geen wetenschappelijke vooruitgang is, maar een symptoom van tirannie: „Als een algoritme exact weet wat jij gaat doen, is dat omdat de wereld via massasurveillance zo is ingericht dat je geen keuzevrijheid meer hebt.” Haar waarschuwing is helder: behandel voorspellingen niet als feiten, maar herken ze als sociale controle en zie ze als uitnodiging tot protest en ongehoorzaamheid.'
