It takes a very special type of intelligence to be able to break down complex topics into digestible forms. This is exactly what you have achieved here Alan. Stellar work! I’m excited to see what trillions of parameters can do!

I rarely binge watching anymore because it leaves me tired and overstimulated. But the talks with Leta are inspiring, deep and touching. What a time to be alive.

Thank you. I have been trying to explain this recent quantum shift in AI but my very, very limited knowledge of the subject (I read the PDP book by Rumelhart & McClelland back in the 1980s) made it difficult for me to explain it to another person. I am still a bit disconcerted that this quantum shift in AI has remained relatively hidden from the general population as it receives little press outside the hard core geek community.

I am not sure what is more impressive
– the Leta composite of voice, visage and nuance of expression
– this overall project and its capable implementation
– or Alan’s highly tuned ability to articulate and express with compelling and infectious enthusiasm
however, I do know I like it and I hope people are contributing to its continuance

Thank you for simplifying what is going on. I love AI and its progress but don’t understand much about it.

I think you are the missing link between researchers and the public. Those datacards are very useful to see the evolution of AI.

Dear Dr. Alan D Thompson,

I love your video content about ai development, so thanks for that!

I'm an artist & I'm really interested in tracking the progress of ai in my art work. I hope you don't mind that I used a graphic from your site about language models to date.

Hello Dr.! I just want to say "Thank you so much!" for providing all the information that you do. I am able to use your videos as an effective way to convey to others the paramount social and human shift that AI is about to have on us. We knew the moment of quickening that happens with initial stages of singularity, and we are there! Right now! What an incredible time to be alive.

Your advice on AI has just been so extraordinarily interesting to me! I think on my deathbed—which is hopefully many years away—I probably will remember this couple of hours!

Excellent Dr. Thompson. I have lived 85 years and witnessed humanity struggle through many changes but nothing since the Atom Bomb is going to affect us like the coming AI integration into our lives is going to do. I find your reporting to be clear and easy to understand.

I have just finished watching your Leta AI YouTube series, and the accompanying videos on Gato and Dall E and so on. It is amazing stuff. I do think that your work on the Leta episodes is actually valuable, as a model of what a benevolent and emotionally aware AI persona would look like. The prompts you have devised to create “Leta” are a guide to what will be needed in the future.

Dear Alan,

I am absolutely fascinated by what is going on in AI right now. You have restored my sense of wonder and faith in a bright and exciting future.

I am Vlad, a neuroscience graduate from Romania. I am still trying to make the right next step, and I am more convinced by the day that whatever that step may be, it should involve AI. I am just beginning to grasp this field and would appreciate some indications or pointers, such as the ones provided by The Memo.

Thank you so much for everything you do!

Best,
Vlad

thanks for introducing me to text to prompt ai on your YouTube channel. I am an artist who uses photoshop in unique ways. But I feel, as if a child again, a new medium.

In a few hours …

Thx brother! Dennis

Phenomenal work by @dralandthompson in cataloguing and describing the large language models produced by the #AI community so far.
