How should we go about understanding LLMs? Do these language models truly understand what they are saying? Or is it possible that what appears to be intelligence in LLMs may be a mirror that merely reflects the intelligence of the interviewer? In this book, Sejnowski, a pioneer in computational approaches to understanding brain function, answers all our urgent questions about this astonishing new technology. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSejnowski begins by describing the debates surrounding LLMs' comprehension of language and exploring the notions of \"thinking\" and \"intelligence.\" He then takes a deep dive into the historical evolution of language models, focusing on the role of transformers, the correlation between computing power and model size, and the intricate mathematics shaping LLMs. Sejnowski also provides insight into the historical roots of LLMs and discusses the potential future of AI, focusing on next-generation LLMs inspired by nature and the importance of developing energy-efficient technologies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGrounded in Sejnowski's dual expertise in AI and neuroscience, \u003ci\u003eChatGPT and the Future of AI \u003c\/i\u003eis the definitive guide to understanding the intersection of AI and human intelligence.","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51319144055007,"sku":"9780262049252","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/CQmsJOLC6w9780262049252.webp?v=1788366289"},{"product_id":"the-deep-learning-revolution-paperback","title":"The Deep Learning Revolution - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow deep learning--from Google Translate to driverless cars to personal cognitive assistants--is changing our lives and transforming every sector of the economy.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe deep learning revolution has brought us driverless cars, the greatly improved Google Translate, fluent conversations with Siri and Alexa, and enormous profits from automated trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Deep learning networks can play poker better than professional poker players and defeat a world champion at Go. In this book, Terry Sejnowski explains how deep learning went from being an arcane academic field to a disruptive technology in the information economy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSejnowski played an important role in the founding of deep learning, as one of a small group of researchers in the 1980s who challenged the prevailing logic-and-symbol based version of AI. The new version of AI Sejnowski and others developed, which became deep learning, is fueled instead by data. Deep networks learn from data in the same way that babies experience the world, starting with fresh eyes and gradually acquiring the skills needed to navigate novel environments. Learning algorithms extract information from raw data; information can be used to create knowledge; knowledge underlies understanding; understanding leads to wisdom. Someday a driverless car will know the road better than you do and drive with more skill; a deep learning network will diagnose your illness; a personal cognitive assistant will augment your puny human brain. It took nature many millions of years to evolve human intelligence; AI is on a trajectory measured in decades. Sejnowski prepares us for a deep learning future.","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51319181836511,"sku":"9780262544993","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/2MHV1tZ89c9780262544993.webp?v=1788366359"},{"product_id":"uncommon-sense-teaching-practical-insights-in-brain-science-to-help-students-learn-paperback-1","title":"Uncommon Sense Teaching: Practical Insights in Brain Science to Help Students Learn - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eTop 10 Pick for Learning Ladders' Best Books for Educators Summer 2021 \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA groundbreaking guide to improve teaching based on the latest research in neuroscience, from the bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eA Mind for Numbers\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNeuroscientists and cognitive scientists have made enormous strides in understanding the brain and how we learn, but little of that insight has filtered down to the way teachers teach. \u003ci\u003eUncommon Sense Teaching\u003c\/i\u003e applies this research to the classroom for teachers, parents, and anyone interested in improving education.
