Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Adam Optimizer Causes Privileged Basis in Transformer Language Models, published by Diego Caples on September 6, 2024 on LessWrong. Diego Caples (diego@activated-ai.com) Rob Neuhaus (rob@activated-ai.com) Introduction In principle, neuron activations in a transformer-based language model residual stream should be about the same scale. In practice, however the dimensions unexpectedly widely vary in scale. Mathematical theories of the transformer architecture do not predict this. They expect rotational equivariance within a model, where one dimension is no more important than any other. Is there something wrong with our reasonably informed intuitions of how transformers work? What explains these outlier channels? Previously, Anthropic researched the existence of these privileged basis dimensions (dimensions more important / larger than expected) and ruled out several causes. By elimination, they reached the hypothesis that per-channel normalization in the Adam optimizer was the cause of privileged basis. However, they did not prove this was the case. We conclusively show that Adam causes outlier channels / privileged basis within the transformer residual stream. When replacing the Adam optimizer with SGD, models trained do not have a privileged basis. As a whole, this work improves mechanistic understanding of transformer LM training dynamics and confirms that our mathematical models of transformers are not flawed. Rather, they simply do not take into account the training process. Our code is open source at the LLM outlier channel exploration GitHub. Key Results Training an LM with SGD does not result in a privileged basis, indicating that Adam is the cause of privileged basis in transformer LMs. Training a 12M parameter model on TinyStories allows us to replicate outlier channel behavior on a small LM, training in less than 15 minutes on an H100. Background Recommended Reading Privileged Bases in the Transformer Residual Stream Toy Models of Superposition (Privileged Basis Section) More About Anthropic's Work We consider Anthropic's research on privileged basis the primary motivator for this work. In Anthropic's Privileged Bases in the Transformer Residual Stream, they demonstrate privileged basis in a 200M parameter LLM, performed some experiments to rule out possible causes, but did not find a definitive cause. They hypothesize that outlier channels are caused by Adam's lack of rotational equivariance, and suggest that training using SGD could isolate Adam as the cause. Adam vs SGD, and Rotational Equivariance Consider an experiment where we rotate the parameter space of a neural network, train it, and then invert the rotation. With Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), this process yields the same model as if we hadn't rotated at all. However, with the Adam optimizer, we end up with a different model. This difference can be explained by the presence/absence a property called rotational equivariance. SGD is rotationally equivariant: optimizer steps are always directly proportional to the gradient of the loss function, regardless of the chosen coordinate system. In contrast, Adam is not rotationally equivariant because it takes steps in ways that are not proportional to the gradient. Updates depend on coordinate-wise gradient statistics. As we later show, this difference is what leads to privileged basis within LMs. Kurtosis Motivated by Anthropic, we use excess kurtosis as a metric for measuring basis privilege. We encourage the reader to read Anthropic's reasoning for why this is a good metric, but here we aim to demonstrate graphically that excess kurtosis is a reasonable choice for measuring basis privilege. We plot the middle layer residual stream activations for the last token of string: "Lilly saw a big red apple!" as an Adam optimized LM training run progresses....

Kit Schluter celebrates the publication of "Cartoons," (City Lights) & Garrett Caples celebrates the publication of "Proses: Incomparable Parables! Fabulous Fables! Cruel Tales!" (Wave Books). Purchase "Cartoons:" https://citylights.com/city-lights-published/cartoons/ Purchase "Proses:" https://citylights.com/general-fiction/proses-incomparable-parables-fabulous/ About "Cartoons:" Set in the uncanny valley between Bugs Bunny & Franz Kafka, "Cartoons" is an explosive series of outrageous, absurdist tales. "Cartoons" proposes itself as a genre of imaginary writing in opposition to the realism of most contemporary U.S. fiction, aligning itself with the French symbolism & Latin American fabulism its author is known to translate. A giant cricket with a tiny Kit Schluter in a jar, an umbrella who confuses the words porpoise and purpose in its quest for self-fulfillment, a pair of slugs go on a bender, these are just a few denizens of its pages, suffused with a fairy tale-like animism. A microwave oven decries microaggressions. A beer bottle is filled with regret. An escalator mechanic's shoe conceals a terrible secret. Kit Schluter's recent work has appeared in Boston Review, BOMB, & Brooklyn Rail. He is author of the poetry collection "Pierrot's Fingernails" (Canarium Books) as well as numerous chapbooks & artist editions of poems & stories. Schluter is included in the latest edition of "Best American Experimental Writing" (Wesleyan UP, 2020), edited by Carmen Maria Machado, Joyelle McSweeney, Jesse Damiani & Seth Abramson. He has translated widely from French & Spanish, including works by Rafael Bernal (New Directions), Marcel Schwob (Wakefield Press), & Olivia Tapiero (Nightboat Books). He recently illustrated Sebastian Castillo's novel "SALMON." Kit coordinates production & design for Nightboat Books and lives in Mexico City. About "Proses:" In the grand tradition of poet's fiction, "Proses: Incomparable Parables! Fabulous Fables! Cruel Tales!" is a collection of nine phantasmagorical stories by poet & City Lights editor, Garrett Caples. Turning its back on the ethos of traditional narrative, "Proses" draws on Marcel Schwob, magical realism, & speculative fiction for inspiration, projecting worlds dominated by dream logic & impossible dimensions. Spectral nuns, xenobots, explosive phraseology, & even Ringo Starr are some of the unexpected dilemmas confronting the various protagonists. Poets such as Andrew Joron, Kit Schluter, & Claude Grind make cameo appearances. While each story is a standalone, the collection amounts to an intricate whole, as themes, objects, & characters recur, encouraging readers to enjoy the book sequentially. Regardless of how it's enjoyed, "Proses" is both a satire of the world of contemporary poetry & a celebration of that world's fantastic, infinite imagination. Garrett Caples is the author of "Lovers of Today" (Wave Books, 2021), "Power Ballads" (Wave Books, 2016), "Complications" (2007), & "The Garrett Caples Reader" (1999), a collection of outtakes, "The Rise & Fall of Johnny Volume" (2020), & a bilingual selection, "Noches Apátridas" (Unstated Nights, 2019). He's also written a book of essays, "Retrievals" (2014), & a pamphlet, "Quintessence of the Minor" (2010). He's the editor of Philip Lamantia's "Preserving Fire: Selected Prose" (2018), Samuel Greenberg's "Poems from the Greenberg MSS" (2019), & Michael McClure's "Mule Kick Blues and Last Poems" (2021), as well as the co-editor of "The Collected Poems of Philip Lamantia" (2013), "Particulars of Place" (2015) by Richard O. Moore, "Incidents of Travel in Poetry: New and Selected Poems" (2016) by Frank Lima, & "Arcana: A Stephen Jonas Reader" (2019). He is an editor at City Lights Books, where he curates the Spotlight Poetry Series. Originally broadcast from City Lights' Poetry Room on Thursday, May 22, 2024. Hosted by Peter Maravelis.

What's the secret to success, when a project lasts years longer than planned? What keeps us going when our work takes more time? How does the subject matter of a project relate to the form of a project? Why should we be thinking equally about the budget for what happens after a project opens? What is the “architecture of delight”? Why do “reverberations matter”? Which is more important: patience, or pushing? (Hint: it's a trick question.) And most importantly, why should everybody visit the house of Louis and Lucille Armstrong in Queens, New York? Regina Bain (Executive Director, Louis Armstrong House Museum & Archives) and Sara Caples, (Principal and co-founder of Caples Jefferson Architects) join host Jonathan Alger (Managing Partner, C&G Partners) to discuss the new Louis Armstrong Center project that all three worked on.Along the way: why everyone should take acting classes, and what it's like being inside a cello.Chapters:1.

In the midst of the reverberations of slavery, Jim Crow laws and the great migration, Armstrong became America's first Black popular music icon. The Museum preserves his home and archives and develops programs grounded in the values of artistic excellence, education and community. This year, Ms. Bain recently opened the new 14,000 sq. foot Armstrong Center housing a multimedia exhibit curated by Jason Moran, a 75-seat performance space, and the 60,000-piece Armstrong Archives — the largest archives of any jazz musician and one of the largest of any Black musician. Previous to her appointment at LAHM, Ms. Bain served as Associate Vice President of the Posse Foundation — a national leadership and college access program. Bain's efforts helped to increase Posse's national student graduation rates for four consecutive years. Bain is currently the co-chair of Culture @3's anti-racism subcommittee and recently served on the Yale Board of Governors. Sara Caples AIA is Principal and co-founder of Caples Jefferson Architects PC.

You can have the greatest product, the greatest headline, the greatest targeting, the greatest offer, and the greatest price. But you know what's going to torpedo your entire promotion in a New York minute? It's: if your prospect doesn't believe you. We covered one aspect of believability last week, but we have some fresh tips today. Because believability is the pass/fail test every ad must pass in order to work. Period. But that's not the end of the story. In today's Old Masters Series episode, we draw on the considerable wisdom of the great John Caples, and a new book I just found out about. Unlike the classic Caples work Tested Advertising Methods, this book is readily available on Amazon for the low, low price of $8.86. And the Kindle is even less. It's called Making Ads Pay, and it's worth far more than the asking price. In this book Caples has a whole chapter on making ads believable. We're going to talk more about that today.
