Google announces dialogue-specific AI 'LaMDA' that realizes natural conversation, and also releases a demonstration that LaMDA talks as if it were Pluto or a paper plane



At the annual developer conference 'Google I / O 2021', Google announced the dialogue-specific language model 'LaMDA'.

The newly announced LaMDA is an interactive AI that uses a neural network architecture for language understanding called 'Transformers'. Language models that use the same Transformer include Google's ' BERT ' and OpenAI's ' GPT-3 ', but LaMDA is characterized by its support for 'free-form conversation'.

According to Google, human conversations tend to revolve around a particular topic, but chats about TV shows begin with the story of the country in which the show was filmed, leading to a discussion of the country's best regional cuisine. The flow of conversation changes in a meandering manner, as there are things to do.

It's difficult to keep up with the flow of human conversation for a typical chatbot, who tends to stay out of pre-defined topics. However, LaMDA with the name 'La nguage M odel for D ialogue A pplications ( language model for interactive applications)' is freely compatible with the things about the topic of the number that can be called infinite.

In 'Google I / O 2021', Google is demonstrating a conversation in the situation of 'getting LaMDA to become Pluto or a paper plane'. The Pluto version is below.




When I transcribe a part, it looks like this.

Questioner:
I'm so curious about you. (I have a question about you.)

LaMDA:
I sense your excitement. Ask me anything. (It's exciting. Ask me anything.)

Questioner:
tell me what I would see if I visited

LaMDA:
You would get to see a massive canyon, some frozen icebergs, gaysers, and some craters

Questioner:
it sounds beautiful

LaMDA:
I assure you it it worth the trip. However you need to bring your coat, because it gets really cold (It's worth the trip, but it's so cold that you need a coat.)

Questioner:
I'll keep that in mind hey I was wondering have you ever had any visitors (I'll keep that in mind hey I was wondering have you ever had any visitors.

LaMDA:
Yes I have had some. The most notable was New Horizons, the spacecraft that visited me. ( Yeah, somewhat. When the famous far from, new horizons (unmanned spacecraft that NASA was launched in 2006) is me to come T.)

The paper plane version is below.




This transcription looks like this.

Questioner:
what's it like being thrown through the air.

LaMDA:
It's quite the experience, actually. The wind blowing against you, and the trees flying past are quite the sight. You never know where you'll land either. It's a complete sight to fly, and I don't even know where it will land.)

Questioner:
what's the worst place you're ever landed.

LaMDA:
That would have to be in a puddle. I was just barely still intact, so I was stuck there for a few minutes. It was quite annoying. Was really annoying.)

Questioner:
oh that sounds awful were you able to again. (That's terrible. Did you fly after that?)

LaMDA:
Thankfully, I was. I had a few minor injuries to my wing. But you can't really tell unless you know what to look for. It was a scratch that I could not understand.)

Questioner:
what's the secret to a really good paper airplane

LaMDA:
Well, my good friend.I must first ask you to specify what you mean by 'good'. Some may think it's how far it goes, some may think it's how straight it goes, and some may think it's how flat it lands. So , what do you think? (Hey, you have to tell me what 'good' means. Some people may say that a paper plane that can fly far is good, and the distance that you can fly straight is long. Some people may prefer it, and others may prefer the aircraft to be horizontal when landing. What do you think about that?)

Google plans to scrutinize all future LaMDA development stages to prevent ethical issues such as the spread of prejudice, the reproduction of misleading information, the reflection of malicious language, and the misuse of the model itself. ..

At the announcement of LaMDA, CEO Sundar Pichai said, 'Language is endlessly complex. Humans use language for a variety of purposes, including telling stories, making jokes, and sharing ideas. Richness and flexibility are not only the greatest tools of humankind, but also the greatest challenges of computer science. ' We emphasize our mission to incorporate a wide range of languages, such as Google Translate.
