You can use eigenvalue solver to find singular values of any matrix but not vica versa. Implementing eigenvalues needs complex numbers

Eigenvalue are more flexible than singular values -- If you have procedure for computing eigenvalues of C, squared singular values of X are eigenvalues of C=XX'. Left and write singular vectors of X and eigenvectors of XX' and X'X. For rotation rotation matrix, singular values are all 1. Meanwhile eigenvalues tell you angles of rotation https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/4874616/obtaining-a...

I had similar experience, Claude made report of MRI for achilles tear, it measured the gap, but it was completely hallucinated. Achilles tendon is black on the MRI, it instead measured 13mm distance between two completely different things (looked white), the radiologist looked at and saw no gap at all

This project gave me motivation to build the deep learning next token prediction integration for JetBrains because I was using PyCharm at the time. (Eventually, it wasn't continued because it was kind of expensive to host)

I don't hold grudge, GPT-2 wasn't that great of a model, so releasing it would be more of a publicity value. But the blog post already had that purpose.

This was around the time I trained Transformer-XL (outside of OpenAI) with Ben Mann (https://yaroslavvb.medium.com/scaling-transformer-xl-to-128-...) . Originally we wanted to release train and release the weights as a kind of GPT-2.5, but our OpenAI friends pushed us to keep weights closed.

I used to look at all TensorFlow questions when I was on the TensorFlow team (https://stackoverflow.com/tags/tensorflow/info). Unclear where people go to interact with their users now....Reddit? But the tone on Reddit is kind of negative/complainy

Stricter (but not looser) standards can be imposed on state level. Canada has no binding national drinking water law, they leave it to territories/provinces to decide how to implement guidelines.
