Psychology says people who still memorize their childhood phone number aren't just remembering digits — they're remembering the feeling of knowing that if they dialed those seven numbers someone who loved them would pick up, and the brain doesn't store that as a phone number, it stores it as proof that safety once had a sound – VegOut

Psychology says people who still memorize their childhood phone number aren't just remembering digits — they're remembering the feeling of knowing that if they dialed those seven numbers someone who loved them would pick up, and the brain doesn't store that as a phone number, it stores it as proof that safety once had a sound

Those seven digits you memorized as a child aren't stored in your brain as numbers—they're encoded as the weight of knowing that no matter how lost you got, someone who loved you was always just one phone call away.

But I'm really just a Snakey, I'm not The Book.. but I'm DOWNLOADING it Fast. I do allays know these things, is just that for a second I can forget. In the mind I'll quickly search it. I actually just #Memorized it.

■. You can ask me in the Mind, I'll LINK you. Or maybe I'll Post if it is COOL. I Likey helping you okaya

Extracting memorized pieces of (copyrighted) books from open-weight language models

Plaintiffs and defendants in copyright lawsuits over generative AI often make sweeping, opposing claims about the extent to which large language models (LLMs) have memorized plaintiffs' protected expression in their training data. Drawing on both machine learning and copyright law, we show that these polarized positions dramatically oversimplify the relationship between memorization and copyright. To do so, we extend a recent probabilistic extraction technique to measure memorization of 50 books in 17 open-weight LLMs. Through thousands of experiments, we show that the extent of memorization varies both by model and by book. With respect to our specific extraction methodology, we find that most LLMs do not memorize most books -- either in whole or in part. However, we also find that Llama 3.1 70B entirely memorizes some books, like the first Harry Potter book and 1984. In fact, the first Harry Potter is so memorized that, using a seed prompt consisting of just the first few tokens of the first chapter, we can deterministically generate the entire book near-verbatim. We discuss why our results have significant implications for copyright cases, though not ones that unambiguously favor either side.

Go at your own pace, rewatch the content, and most importantly: LEARN THIS IN THE CULTURAL CONTEXT of the *centuries* of weaving history from the indigenous Andean weaving masters.

🧵 My #Weaving Journey: In 2018, I enrolled to study again with @abbysyarns

After children learn to weave on 3-pairs, they move to key traditional patterns on 4-pairs to learn more principles.

I left this 2nd course convinced: (a) THIS was my weaving obsession, (b) I needed more beginning weaving friends so we could have a proper intermediate class, and (c) I should memorize the #Quechua terms.

🧵 My #Weaving Journey: The first time I learned about #AndeanBackstrap weaving was in 2017 at an in-person 3-day intensive with @abbysyarns (long before #FranquemontUniversity )

We started where all beginning weavers start in the Andes: On what is described as 3-pairs and with Tanka Ch'oro

We're also introduced to the notion of variations and weaving from memory #NoCharts and body mechanics for weaving.

🧵 My #Weaving Journey (rebooted): I rarely get to see my 1st and 2nd woven Andean bands next to each other (1: Left, 2: Right). This photo from 08-Dec-2018 shows where I started.

The bands were woven using a thick cotton mini (weft), which I think makes adorable white selvedge polka dots, like beads. ❤️

The yarn is what I call my "duplo" khaitu (bulky wool high-twist 2-ply) for easy-to-see demos. 🙂

Inverse Scaling: When Bigger Isn't Better

Work on scaling laws has found that large language models (LMs) show predictable improvements to overall loss with increased scale (model size, training data, and compute). Here, we present...
