This is an exciting breakthrough! o1 is trained with RL to "think" before responding, using a private chain of thought. Therefore it is possible to adjust the "thinking time" to increase reasoning capabilities. This allows scaling inference time (not only pretraining) 🧠

It's a bit sad and confusing that LLMs ("Large Language Models") have little to do with language; It's just historical. They are highly general purpose technology for statistical modeling of token streams. A better name would be Autoregressive Transformers or something. They

Episode #18 in #TheoreticalNeurosciencePodcast: On electric brain signals – solo episode theoreticalneuroscience.no/thn18 Electric brain signals (spikes, LFP, ECoG, EEG) are typically modeled statistically. But biophysical forward modeling starting with neurons is an alternative.

The world has a shortage of radiologists, physicians, teachers, software engineers, anime artists, pilots, bus drivers, civil engineers, hotel operators, system administrators, architects, sushi chefs, and the list goes on… The more technology there is, the more people we need.
