Why CoT Works: Iterative Computation for Serial Problems Ever wondered when to use fancy Chain of Thought (CoT) prompting, and when regular ChatGPT will do? Here's the key: Serial problems NEED CoT. Turns out, without CoT, we can only solve problems that have fast, parallel solutions. Let's get practical: - Travel Planning: Imagine an AI travel agent. CoT lets the AI figure out your destination, considering your preferences and budget. Then, it factors in dates (weather and your schedule), books your stay, and suggests activities based on the destination's attractions and your interests – each step builds on the last, ensuring a perfect trip. This is a classic example of a serial problem – each step depends on the outcome of the previous one, making it impossible to ask five people to do these steps in parallel. - Sentiment Analysis: This one ISN'T serial. This is a parallel task! A regular transformer can analyze a review for positive/negative/neutral vibes all at once. Imagine it like asking multiple people to independently assess the sentiment of the text simultaneously. They don't need to know the results of each other's analysis or follow any specific order. The Tech Deep Dive (Simplified!) CoT basically lets transformers tackle way more complex problems. Without CoT, they're limited to AC0 problems (solvable by constant-depth circuits). But add CoT, and now we're talking problems solvable by log-depth circuits (NC1 complete problems). Want proof? Check out the paper "Chain of Thought Empowers Transformers to Solve Inherently Serial Problems" (https://lnkd.in/giCaSGA5). Author: Zhiyuan Li, Hong Liu, Denny Zhou , and Tengyu Ma The Takeaway: Next time you've got a problem for your transformer, ask: Is this serial (step-by-step), or can it be done in parallel? That'll tell you if you need the power of CoT. #ChainOfThought #Transformers #CoT #LLM #AI

I keep reading that “AI progress is slowing down”. But it was 6 years from the paper “Attention is all you need” until ChatGPT was released. That’s 6 years of incremental updates to get to an AI model that regular consumers would find useful. ChatGPT is now 2 years old. Maybe it only seems like incremental improvements in that time. But I’ve seen plenty of use cases where the models finally get good enough to be useful. Not only that but we’re getting better at using them. “But aren’t we running out of training data?” No. No we are not. The big players in AI have all sorts of ways of getting more data. That’s not the biggest problem right now. The biggest problem is that additional data is only giving incremental gains. But everyone knows that. It’s not some secret. New papers come out every week about how to get more out of these models. It also seems to take more researchers, more engineers, and more compute to make each incremental update. That’s because everyone is focused on one paradigm and we keep finding ways to squeeze more juice out of it. Paradigm shifts happen on slower time scales while incrementalism gets less and less effective. But incrementalism is how we discover paradigm shifts. “Attention is all you need” was an insight that came from trying to squeeze more performance out of the last paradigm.

🚀 Boosting Efficiency with Formula Optimization! 🚀 In my current role, I faced a challenge with our Annual Performance Review (APR) process. The formula I initially wrote was causing significant slowdowns: =IFERROR(XLOOKUP($A3 & TEXT($J$1, "mm-dd-yyyy"), DUMP!$D:$D & TEXT(DUMP!$AD:$AD, "mm-dd-yyyy"), DUMP!$AE:$AE), 0) This formula worked, but it was making my system incredibly slow due to its complexity and the large dataset it was handling. Determined to find a better solution, I sought assistance and discovered a more efficient approach: =ARRAY_CONSTRAIN(ARRAYFORMULA(IFERROR(INDEX(DUMP!$AE:$AE, MATCH($A3 & TEXT($J$1, "mm-dd-yyyy"), DUMP!$D:$D & TEXT(DUMP!$AD:$AD, "mm-dd-yyyy"), 0)),0)), 1, 1) This new formula, suggested with the help of ChatGPT, dramatically improved the processing speed of our APR system! It’s a great example of how leveraging AI and innovative thinking can lead to substantial performance enhancements. 💡 Key Takeaway: Never stop exploring new solutions and tools. Sometimes, a little optimization can make a huge difference in productivity. #Efficiency #DataProcessing #ExcelTips #AI #Productivity #ContinuousImprovement #Innovation #PerformanceReview

I’ve been thinking about this AI trend for a while now. It started as a joke for many—there’s even a tool called ChatGPT among others that people were playing around with, asking it to write research or generate random facts. But here are my two cents on what’s happening:    AI is becoming more prominent in the tech industry, we’re witnessing a transformation in how businesses operate and innovate. From automating repetitive tasks to enhancing decision-making through data-driven insights. AI is no longer just a buzzword or a fun experiment—it's reshaping industries across the board. In my own experience.I’ve seen how AI tools can streamline workflows, allowing teams to focus on more strategic, creative tasks. Sure thing, AI can automate tasks and speed up processes that used to take days or weeks, and that’s exciting. But I don’t think it will completely prevent human intervention. Yes, it might take a bigger part of the workload, but human creativity, emotional intelligence, and ethical judgment will always be crucial.   We’ll still need human oversight to guide AI’s direction, make sense of nuanced situations, and handle the unexpected. Come to think of it, the true power lies in what the human brain can do. After all, every piece of information that AI relies on was originally created, analyzed, and taught by humans. So while AI offers incredible potential, it’s important to remember that human input will remain an irreplaceable element in this evolving landscape.Just my opinion, what are your views on this?

🔬 Recently, some tests by Hai Huang exploring Large Language Models (GPT-3.5) caught my attention (https://lnkd.in/eq8mv88X). These experiments use LLMs to solve planning problems typically NP-complete, as LLMs often struggle with these kind of tasks. Huang suggests that multiple agents might overcome this limitation (a viewpoint with which I am in alignment). He demonstrates this with examples like Dijkstra's algorithm and a block world problem, the latter showing that GPT3.5 struggles to resolve it, 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐁 𝐨𝐧 𝐀 ( I replicated the same illegal action with the same prompt on GPT-4o. 𝘕𝘰𝘵𝘦: 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘎𝘗𝘛-4𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭). 👉 With these ideas in mind, 𝐈 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 if GPT-4o can solve this simple block world problem. I found that a well-structured prompt can significantly improve the LLM's reasoning and planning abilities, generating good reasoning and valid actions. I structured the prompt with 1) rules, 2) initial block states + first action steps: https://lnkd.in/e2tERVdE Fully agreeing with Hai, my thoughts focus on the impact of a well-structured prompt on release the LLM's reasoning capabilities and the limits of a well-crafted prompt on more hard scenarios. 💬 What do you think? Do you have more cases or insights to share? #artificialIntelligence #data #llms #causality #reasoning #planning

These are approximate ranges based on observed conversational dynamics and not definitive assessments. https://lnkd.in/df5nDUyG Gemini Disclaimer: Estimating IQ based on a short text exchange is highly speculative and should not be taken as a definitive assessment. True IQ assessments require comprehensive testing by qualified professionals. That being said, based on the provided text, we can make some educated inferences: Human 1: Estimated IQ: Average to Below Average Reasoning: The focus on a single aspect of electric mobility (zero tailpipe emissions) without considering the broader environmental impact suggests a potential lack of critical thinking and systems-level understanding. Human 2: Estimated IQ: Above Average Reasoning: The ability to identify the limitations of a simplistic argument, consider the entire lifecycle of a vehicle, and present a more nuanced perspective indicates strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Human 3: Estimated IQ: Difficult to Determine Reasoning: While the "knowledge shock" suggests openness to new information, it's insufficient to make a definitive IQ assessment. Their reaction could be due to various factors, including prior knowledge, personality traits, or emotional responses. https://lnkd.in/d_k7etwF
