is an insanely fast learner This person very clearly does not understand, even at a basic level, how llms work. They are completely incapable of “learning” outside of training, and training cannot happen while you are using them - in no small part because they require MILLIONS of tokens of data to be able to recognize patterns. Meanwhile that theoretical stupid kid she thinks should be paying her masters to have her teach them can learn instantaneously from even a single datapoint.

  • I’m told that agents these days keep a scratchpad of notes to themselves, so an agent can (kind of) learn about things by making a note about it which it will still have access to later, even outside the formal context window. It’s going to be far more limited than the kind of training you’re talking about, but it is something which an individual agent can do

    Well, no. Models are not “self-learning”. This is unrelated to size of the corpus. In fact, it was proven times and times again, that poisoning a model is not a costly proces.
