Description

We will show how words are translated into numbers and how this can be used to calculate differences, similarities, and meanings. This forms the basis for how today’s language models – such as ChatGPT or automatic translators – can analyze, complete, or respond to texts.

LLMpedia – Materializing an LLM’s Encyclopedic Knowledge at Scale

What does a large language model actually know, and how reliable is that knowledge in long-form text? Benchmarks such as MMLU suggest that modern language models are highly factual, but they only test questions that researchers thought to ask. In the LLMpedia project, researchers generate and evaluate encyclopedia-style articles directly from a model’s parametric memory, making it possible to study what the model knows beyond fixed benchmarks.

SQuAI: Answering Scientific Questions Reliably

Every year, millions of new scientific articles are published. With this growing volume of knowledge, it becomes increasingly important to have tools that make it easier to access relevant information. This is exactly where SQuAI comes in: the tool uses artificial intelligence to answer scientific questions by searching relevant research articles and summarizing the most important information in a clear and accessible way.
