On the other side, I’ve never gone to college, yet I was able to take an extremely important and complicated equation and decompose it into its constituent parts, animating each with data visualizations and animated tables of values. [0] This was several frontier model iterations ago.
The LLM model was able to break down and express math in such a simple way that I could understand and follow the training of the LLM model itself!
Are the math and computation accurate? I don’t know, and likely there are significant errors. Nonetheless, if I had a little more time -- not infinite time -- I would be able to prove whether they are or not.
Likely this is the path forward for understanding the mechanisms of medicine, and since most humans learn by doing and interacting with an environment, interacting like this will become how we use AI for learning in the near future.
I mean no disrespect, but it's a basic minimization problem with regularization. Most engineering students will learn this in first year of Masters, if not in Bachelor level. To you it might seem important and complicated, but to me, one look at the objective function was enough. That's what happens when you truly "understand" something.
