Google Neural Machine Translation

Recently, Google swapped out the backend for Google Translate, moving from a statistical phrase-based method to a recurrent neural network. This marks a big change in methodology: the tried-and-true statistical translation methods that have been in use for decades are giving way to a neural net that, across the board, appears to be giving more fluent and natural-sounding translations. This episode recaps statistical phrase-based methods, digs into the RNN architecture a little bit, and recaps the impressive results that is making us all sound a little better in our non-native languages.

Mechanistic Interpretability: How Researchers Try To See Inside Models

Mechanistic Interpretability: How Researchers Try To See Inside Models

As AI systems grow more powerful, they grow harder to understand — and that tradeoff has never mattered more. Most interpretability tricks give us approximations from the outside, but mechanistic inte...

LLM As A Judge

LLM As A Judge

Labeled data is expensive, slow, and painfully hard to come by — and when you're trying to evaluate whether an AI workflow is actually doing what you want, the problem gets even messier. How do you ju...
