#Retraining

[pixierainbows]

Pixie very hard time at temple yesterday Sunshine not behave like good service dog just constant whining and Pixie have had go home Hurry home before Pixie meltdown :( :( :(

Sunshine need retrain need help guardian Wizard going talk trainer soon

Pixie just so upset Sunshine interrupt temple time not behave like good service dog should

Hi. There are dozens of people who have well documented their journey through untraining. But I've seen no one documenting their retraining. I guess there should be at least ONE out there. Or isn't it?

I've seen a few. I'll dig them up when I get the time. Watch this space.

I saw this post yesterday and have been thinking about it on and off since then. Because the job that I'm training for right now has a very definitive start date. That I should know for my exam but...forget >_> In any case, there was a Moment when Rötgen discovered x-rays and pretty much ever since then people have been using them for medical purposes. I think it was in the late 1800s? But again, forgot exactly.

On the other hand, for my current career I have not a single clue! Because lifeguarding as a thing a dedicated thing a person does in exchange for currency seems like a modern invention. And yet...people have been around water since time immemorial and some of those people were probably tasked with saving people who were non/weak swimmers soooo...I have no idea at all.

i was thinking about this today so how long has YOUR JOB existed- not how long your industry has existed, but how long someone has been doing the work you do as a trade notwithstanding changes in terminology and technology. no unemployed option cuz i cant add more answers sorry... tell me about it in the tags

I've spent so much of my life at a job that works _with_ my ADHD that training for a job that doesn't work with my brain is throwing me hard. Like, yes I know I mixed up the left and right again. And again. And again. It sucks and I know it and I can be more vigilant but it isn't ever going to NOT be a problem for me.

“Ah sorry I’m just dumb” (having ADHD my whole life has meant that I’ve been criticised heavily for making mistakes that come part and parcel with the condition. Even the people I love most in the world have chastised me for mistakes that I spend much of my life worrying about and trying to avoid. It’s much easier to tell you I’m just a silly guy than explain to you that no matter how much effort, how much thought, how much stress I put into avoiding these same mistakes, I will keep making them over and over again. My brain is structurally built to thwart me throughout it all.)

Done with my written finals!

Won't know the results for approximately 4 weeks after which I will have to pass the verbal/practical exam. But I think I should have done well enough overall to pass so far.

Writer Unveils Self-Evolving Language Models

Writer, a $2 billion enterprise AI startup, has announced the development of self-evolving large language models (LLMs), potentially addressing one of the most significant limitations in current AI technology: the inability to update knowledge post-deployment.

Breaking the Static Model Barrier

Traditional LLMs operate like time capsules, with knowledge frozen at their training cutoff date. Writer's innovation introduces a "memory pool" within each layer of the transformer architecture, enabling the model to store and learn from new interactions after deployment.

Technical Implementation

The system works by incorporating memory pools throughout the model's layers, allowing it to update its parameters based on new information. This architectural change increases initial training costs by 10-20% but eliminates the need for expensive retraining or fine-tuning once deployed. This development is particularly significant given the projected costs of AI training. Industry analyses suggest that by 2027, the largest training runs could exceed $1 billion, making traditional retraining approaches increasingly unsustainable for most organizations.

Performance and Learning Capabilities

Early testing has shown intriguing results. In one mathematics benchmark, the model's accuracy improved dramatically through repeated testing - from 25% to nearly 75% accuracy. However, this raises questions about whether the improvement reflects genuine learning or simple memorization of test cases.

Current Limitations and Challenges

Writer reports a significant challenge: as the model learns new information, it becomes less reliable at maintaining original safety parameters. This "safety drift" presents particular concerns for customer-facing applications. To address this, Writer has implemented limitations on learning capacity. For enterprise applications, the company suggests a memory pool of 100-200 billion words provides sufficient learning capacity for 5-6 years of operation. This controlled approach helps maintain model stability while allowing for necessary updates with private enterprise data.

Industry Context and Future Implications

This development emerges as major tech companies like Microsoft explore similar memory-related innovations. Microsoft's upcoming MA1 model, with 500 billion parameters, and their work following the Inflection acquisition, suggests growing industry focus on dynamic, updateable AI systems.

Practical Applications

Writer is currently beta testing the technology with two enterprise customers. The focus remains on controlled enterprise environments where the model can learn from specific, verified information rather than unrestricted web data. The technology represents a potential solution to the challenge of keeping AI systems current without incurring the massive costs of regular retraining. However, the balance between continuous learning and maintaining safety parameters remains a critical consideration for widespread deployment. Read the full article

completely off prompt for this one but i was experimenting with drawing in negative space for a little Tuvok portrait.

i dont think thor would adjust to having one eye in a fight that quick i think his aim should've kept being off and he should've nearly wandered off the bifrost edge by accident while trying not to turn his neck too far to make up for the loss of sight range
