Why deep learning works even though it shouldn’t
Why models always get better when they are bigger and deeper, even when the amount of data they consume stays the same or gets smaller.

Teaching GPT-3 to Identify Nonsense
In Giving GPT-3 a Turing Test, Kevin Lacker found that GPT-3 does well answering simple factual questions like “Who was president of the United States in 1955?”, but also happily answered absurd qu…

Deep Learning for Guitar Effect Emulation
Since the 1940s, electric guitarists, keyboardists, and other instrumentalists have been using effects pedals, devices that modify the sound of the original audio source. Typical effects include distortion, compression, chorus, reverb, and delay. Early effects pedals consisted of basic analog circuits, often along…

All models are wrong, but some are completely wrong
At this critical time in the modern history of the human race, mathematical models have been pushed into the foreground. Epidemic forecasting informs policy and even individual decision-making. Sad…

What I wish someone had told me about tensor computation libraries
I get confused with tensor computation libraries (or computational graph libraries, or symbolic algebra libraries, or whatever they’re marketing themselves as these days). I was first introduced to PyTorch and TensorFlow and, having no other reference, thought they were prototypical examples of tensor computation…

Dopamine and Temporal Difference Learning
Learning and motivation are driven by internal and external rewards. Many of our day-to-day behaviours are guided by predicting, or anticipating, whether a given action will result in a positive (that is, rewarding) outcome. The study of how organisms learn from experience to correctly anticipate rewards has been a…

Image GPT
We find that, just as a large transformer model trained on language can generate coherent text, the same exact model trained on pixel sequences can generate coherent image completions and samples. By establishing a correlation between sample quality and image classification accuracy, we show that our best generative…
