Is o1 No Longer a LLM? LeCun + New 'LRM' paper explained (+ exclusive interview clips)
🕑 Added 2024-09-24 14:05:00 +0000 UTCA new paper from the last few days has dropped, and it's a good one. LLMs can now be said to plan, and I have all the analysis as well as exclusive clips from my interview with the lead author. And I don't believe any one else has reported that this breakthrough performance from o1 now exceeds average human performance for this core task.

When do you think true AGI will arrive?

I loved the video and now feel excited and a bit nervous where all of this new LRM domain is heading. I have one question that is still unclear to me. It seems that LRMs do not improve performance outside of a scientific setting, provable correct answer like in math, on which RL can be performed. I would have expected these abilities to increase as well given that the reasoning strategies where reinforced. But maybe the issue is actually how to evaluate such a setting. I am thinking of tasks like, plan my next vacation I like x,y,z and have 3000$ or so. Where there is not a right answer of final location but of how well the model derived its answer from the initial conditioning(likings of the user). Sorry for the wall of text

Good video - will it make its way onto Youtube?
Martin Fjeldbonde
Great video again! I have just watched your video on Situation Awareness. Would love to hear if your analysis of Leopold’s claims have changed with the release of O1?
Jonathan Kirk
I am glad that the researchers pointed out the cost and time constraints with o1, but I think some leniency is also due. New technologies and frontiers were never meant to be efficient right away. So who knows what this will look like once the chips have been improved, the micro-nuclear plants built, and the models scaled up. This decade will not be forgotten.

I was talking with Beth Rudden from Bast AI on hybrid symbolic/LLM systems for critical work. Would be worth talking/interviewing her.

It's worthwhile to review Andrej Karpathy's notion, sketched 10 months ago in a YouTube talk (starting at 42:15), of an "LLM OS" with an LLM "kernel process" making use of tools: https://youtu.be/zjkBMFhNj_g?si=kzFx73VBJ-aXPdvy&t=2535

I think I will use O1 models more often (as part of an agent's workflow) when APIs become easier to acces.

Don't crack out 2001 unless it's worth it!
Michael Cho
Loving the background music to this video :)
Erik
You know it's serious when Phillip highlights words like "quantum improvement" in the first 5 minutes of his video, and doesn't specify any caveats until much later!
Lee FRASER
Thanks for another fantastic exclusive to your old and new Patreons.
Gabor Melli
Now we (likely) know what Ilya (and the board?) saw.
Nikolai NM
I had a wish come through here: perspectives on planing :)
Alexis Olson
Next-gen LRM + competent tool use is going to be quite powerful.
Philip
Yeah, which boils down to the richness of the training data
Philip
I agree totally
Philip
I did, yeah, at like -30 decibels to normal vol.

Sneaky Philip

If reasoning can be scaled using inference cost, does the bottleneck become the world-model?
SteveHaupt
I have the impression that most people don't realize what the new capabilities of o1 are. Thank you for pointing them out with very good examples. I wonder what the limit of LRM will be.
André Thieme
I loved this humor. A video about planning, yet Phil’s videos are unplanned :-)
Norfuer
Was I just hearing things or did you actually start playing the 2001 song on a very low volume? Wow.
