How to Keep Improving When You're Better Than Any Teacher - Iterated Distillation and Amplification
Ғылым және технология
[2nd upload] AI systems can be trained using demonstrations from experts, but how do you train them to out-perform those experts? Can this still be done even without clear win/loss criteria? And how do you do it safely?
This video was based on work including:
"Supervising strong learners by amplifying weak experts" by Paul Christiano, Buck Shlegeris, Dario Amodei (arxiv.org/abs/1810.08575)

"If you are, for example, an AGI..." Nice job future proofing the video ;) Seriously though, in retrospect, iterated distillation and amplification is obvious to the point of seeming trivial... which means you did an excellent job explaining it.

You distilled a hell of a lot of information in this 10 minute video. Spending so much time on the animations really was worth it I think
Alright I'll watch it twice then ! (The animations are neat btw !)

This is the third time for me, or maybe the fourth 🤷I just remember the first and the second time. I created a two year dejavu to prove this reality is a simulation. If someone is interested about my theory reply to this message, I am too tired to explain now, I had to escape from the police last night and do all sorts of crazy things to repeat what I did two years ago. If someone else has experienced the dejavu they know for sure I am not joking. If you haven't experienced the same things twice, I can still convince you I am telling the truth because I've left material evidence about it. Reply to this message and I'll explain with more detail...

@@rogerab1792 Chill my dude, the video was simply reposted because of a minor editing error. You may want to see a psychiatrist tho, you don't seem to be doing too good right now (if you have something like schyzophrenia or any paranoia inducing psychologic condition then you probably need medication).
Excellent! High quality animations with high quality teacher. I'm so grateful for all the good content you have been posting here.
Animations at that level would cost a lot of time, but what you chose to create really "burned" the concepts into my visual memory, so thank you for the effort.
Holy hell, this was awesome and very clear!
I'm at 5:51 rn so I haven't finished yet but OMLORDY this thing about having a quick solution vs a slow algorithm is actually how the human brain works. I'm studying cognitive neuroscience and software in Uni right now and that is so cool to see how the two overlap so naturally. Love it

Roberts ability to clearly explain complicated things is itself an art form.

10:32 Have you tried using distillation on your animation procedure? I've heard it can approximate a long process into a fast and efficient one. Loved the video by the way, looking forward to the next part.

Distillation requires a lot of resources to get the good results. For 1 vid he’s better off just amplifying
This nicely mirrors Kahneman's description of system 1 and 2 in human decision making.

The animations actually really helped make your explanation clear.
I've been waiting for a new video!! Glad to see you're uploading again :)
I did a thing a little like this for a chess program but my main part was not the "best move finder". The main thing was the "dumb move remover". This was based on recording the game as the program played out a whole game against its self. When the one side lost, there would be a search back through the moves to find the greatest change in board "position". The move just before that was taken to be a bad move and was added to the list of dumb moves. Removing dumb moves quickly saves a lot of processing time. The board position evaluation was not as cheap as it would first appear because unlike is normal today that part was extremely non-linear.
Thank you for sharing Rob !
Really well explained, thanks!
This was superb. Fantastic animations. Clear explanations. Awesome all around.
legit my favourite channel on youtube by far

Ugh so worth the wait!
Good to see you're still alive
Your videos are approachable and fascinating. Keep up the good work, Rob! You're awesome.
im so happy you are back, high quality content as always.
Huge step up in quality from an already phenomenal channel. By all means, take your time. The payoff is clear. Looking forward to more, Cheers!
Highly interesting as always, thanks!
Wow this was amazing. I loved the animations. The explanations were so clear
Those animations are really cool!
Awesome video and very easy to understand, keep up the good work !
Wow, fantastic animations! The content is so deep! I love it!
Those animations were AWESOME!! Thanks
Really interesting! The animations are great.
Fantastically intuitive explanation, Robert. The animations were a crucial tool. Thank you for the efforts!
The quality of your videos have really improved. This was very well animated and explained. Thank you, please keep them coming.
Thank you for your well crafted explanation!
And here I was thinking this was just going to be a simple minimax video!
Great work!
The animations were great! Very intuitive video :)
You explained this so clearly, thank you!
Great lecture!
Wow, very clear and to the point. I love it. Definetly worth sharing 😁
This channel is gold, and so is the work you're putting in! Simply great!
Absolutely brilliant explanation!
Really excellent video, Robert! I love your videos on computerphile and this one seems to be an even better version that those there, with a clear explanation and neat graphics. Keep it up and Thank you very much!
Your animations were really good! Enjoyed the explanation as well.
this explains not only how to become better it also informs you why majority will never become good because of not using or coming up with such tools...
Great idea, concise, precise.
Your absolute best video yet!
The animations really helped me understand some things that had been confusing for me! Thanks!
good stuff as always man
Those animations were totally worth it! Really well done video
Really nice video, explained the topic well
I liked the animations. I probably didn't consciously learn anything from them, but they held my itty-bitty internet-addled attention, thus keeping my eyes on the screen, so they were a part of the learning.
Probably the most intuitively informative video I've ever seen.
Such a quality video! You must have put so much time into this! Thanks a lot Robert, you're the hero of all ML/AI enthuiasts :D
Awesome animations!!!
Those animations are great! Be proud ♥
Dear Rob. Ive learned so much from your videos. Top quality education
Your explanation is absolutely outstanding.
Brilliantly explained
Worth watching a few times! ^_^
Amazing animation and the easiest intuitive explanation of the ideas from Reinforcement learning I have seen so far with a surprising connection with AI safety. It was cool! Thanks!
The animations are great! I took mental notes specifically on how satisfying and descriptive they are. Well worth the time, in my opinion. c:
Wow, you really are good at explaining these subjects. Thank you.
Animations were very helpful. I'm not sure how much work they were but I'm grateful that you did them.
Animations were worth it. They help immensely
A very valuable video for me, thank you.
Great job on this video! Your explanations were quite easy to understand and I think the animations helped to explain it. I tend to find diagrams and animations easier to understand than listening to spoken words, so I appreciate the effort you put into those animations.
Loved the video
Animations arw SO worth it thanks a lot.
You have a gift of making the most foreign concepts easily understandable for the layman, such I myself.
And I really want to thank You for continuing to produce and share Your fantastic content!!! Unfotunately I'm not able to support You (or any other of the many fantastic crestors) so all I can do is to watch everything and express my great gratitude. So a again, a thousand thanks !!! Best regards.
Yay ! We missed you, Rob :)
you are wonderful Being! for what you doing ! so helpful in these time and age of probabilities!
Absolutely amazing and helpful for learning strategies as well( learning to become a front end dev atm)
This was fantastic! Very well done. Cheers!
I've seen this concept floating around a lot, but didn't really understand it 'til now. Thanks!
Thank you. My deepest respect for visually sharring all of your knowledge. I am certain many people have become at least a slightly better of themselves because of you.
the animations really paid off.
This is brilliant
Crystal clear explanation with no waffle. Thank you. The graphics are so useful, they need their own name. How about didactic visualizations? :-)
How did I miss this?! I can't believe I hadn't "hit the bell" on this channel yet.
Your videos are perfectly optimized to be easily processed by my learning function.
Very nice and understandable. Thx. The limits of architecture in n-dimensions..
Really good animations. I know that it must have been a lot of work, but it was worth it. For visual types like myself, a little illustration can go a long way.
To be honest, I expected a self-help video about autodidacts but I was pleasantly surprised anyways. Good stuff! This is very ingenious.
Great video and explanation, doesn't address the fundamental problems we will invariably have with AGI, but shows some of the potential dangers.
Thank you for being MY amplified agent.
Wooo! Said Polat! I've been following Seed (their Webtoon narrating the birth of a super AI) since it got featured on the platform ^^ I'm watching this video kinda late, but I think it's neat "how small the world can be". Also, really informative and interesting video Robert! ...I'm totally not binge-ing all of your uploads. Nope, nuh-uh. ....promise :3
Few lectures have been as unbelievably good as this one.
Best KZread Video of the Month
Very great!
Thank you for the fantastic videos! I've been following you on and off for a while and learned a lot. You provide some great insights on not just AI safety, but how it works. Do add some animations if you want to go mainstream 😅 cheers!
awesome! this makes so much sense! this is exactly how i get better at chess, play a game quickly, then go back and calculate a lot to find the better moves, then improve my intuition! its so awesome that you said it in such a way that now i feel like i can write a program to become superhuman at anything :D
This video deserves more views
