Tasks

  • Set up the test for Sande
  • Odyssey at 11:00
  • 4:30 meeting with J&S. Good discussion as always. Good discussion about detecting model vs prompt changes. Turns out that you can make a Turing machine with an LLM prompt, so you can theoretically build an LLM, but it would take a lot of tokens. Emulating ONE FORWARD PASS of a Llama-3-8B model with the full 8k context window would take 180 to 270 Billion Tokens. Attention alone is 20-30 billion tokens.
