In this eye-opening conversation, join host Rajiv Parikh as he unveils Arena AI – their revolutionary platform that's transforming how marketing campaigns are planned, executed, and optimized. Sajjan Kanukolanu (VP of Global Operations) and Vikrant V.(CTO) walk us through how their team has embedded 20 years of marketing expertise into a system that combines project management, unified analytics, and AI agents that execute real marketing work.• Arena includes project management specifically designed for marketing workflows• The Calibrate interface provides unified dashboards pulling data from 130+ platforms• RPA technology connects even to custom platforms without APIs• AI co-pilot powered by multiple agents that execute specific marketing tasks• Built on what Position Squared calls their "Growth Language Model"• Platform incorporates 20 years of industry-specific marketing expertise• System provides 95% accurate predictive analytics using LSTM neural networks• Campaign strategies incorporate industry data and competitor analysis• Human oversight remains crucial at decision points for optimal results• AI agents work together to handle everything from ICPs to ad creationThe marketing technology landscape has exploded with specialized tools, leaving marketers buried under mountains of disconnected data and endless manual tasks. What if there was a way to harness artificial intelligence not just for insights, but to actually do the work?The most fascinating aspect of Arena isn't just its ability to connect data from hundreds of platforms (even proprietary ones without APIs), but how it deploys specialized AI agents to handle specific marketing tasks. Unlike generic AI tools that provide broad recommendations, Arena's Growth Language Model understands the nuances of different industries and buyer personas, delivering highly targeted strategies that have historically driven results.What makes this conversation particularly valuable is how openly the team discusses their journey from service provider to software company.  Their practical approach demonstrates that effective AI implementation isn't about theoretical capabilities, but about solving real problems that marketers face daily.Sajjan Kanukolanu: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sajjank/Sajjan serves as Vice President of Global Operations & Strategy at Position².

Join Colonel Vikrant Shinde and Arindam Goswami in this episode of All Things Policy, where we dive into one of the most transformative developments in modern warfare and aviation: the rise of unmanned aerial systems. Vikrant, a Research Fellow at Takshashila, is working on a research paper on this very subject, which will be out very soon.From their military origins to today's complex commercial ecosystem, drones have revolutionised our airspace - particularly what experts call the "Air Littoral," that critical zone below 10,000 feet where traditional aircrafts now share space with everything from delivery drones to weaponised UAVs.The recent India-Pakistan conflict brought this reality into sharp focus, showing how drones have fundamentally transformed the battlefield. Meanwhile, countries like India are navigating the delicate balance between fostering innovation through regulations like the Drone Rules 2021 while simultaneously developing counter-UAS capabilities to address emerging security threats.The discussion in this episode explores this new aerial frontier - where regulators, military strategists, and technology developers are racing to build systems that can distinguish friend from foe in increasingly congested skies. How do we manage this complex ecosystem? What lessons have recent conflicts taught us about drone warfare? And what does the future hold for airspace security?Join us as we discuss about the technological challenges, regulatory frameworks, and defence strategies shaping the future of our skies.The PGP is a comprehensive 48-week hybrid programme tailored for those aiming to delve deep into the theoretical and practical aspects of public policy.

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: AXRP Episode 29 - Science of Deep Learning with Vikrant Varma, published by DanielFilan on April 25, 2024 on The AI Alignment Forum. In 2022, it was announced that a fairly simple method can be used to extract the true beliefs of a language model on any given topic, without having to actually understand the topic at hand. Earlier, in 2021, it was announced that neural networks sometimes 'grok': that is, when training them on certain tasks, they initially memorize their training data (achieving their training goal in a way that doesn't generalize), but then suddenly switch to understanding the 'real' solution in a way that generalizes. What's going on with these discoveries? Are they all they're cracked up to be, and if so, how are they working? In this episode, I talk to Vikrant Varma about his research getting to the bottom of these questions. Topics we discuss: Challenges with unsupervised LLM knowledge discovery, aka contra CCS What is CCS? Consistent and contrastive features other than model beliefs Understanding the banana/shed mystery Future CCS-like approaches CCS as principal component analysis Explaining grokking through circuit efficiency Why research science of deep learning? Summary of the paper's hypothesis What are 'circuits'? The role of complexity Many kinds of circuits How circuits are learned Semi-grokking and ungrokking Generalizing the results Vikrant's research approach The DeepMind alignment team Follow-up work Daniel Filan: Hello, everybody. In this episode I'll be speaking with Vikrant Varma, a research engineer at Google DeepMind, and the technical lead of their sparse autoencoders effort. Today, we'll be talking about his research on problems with contrast-consistent search, and also explaining grokking through circuit efficiency. For links what we're discussing, you can check the description of this episode and you can read the transcript at axrp.net. All right, well, welcome to the podcast. Vikrant Varma: Thanks, Daniel. Thanks for having me. Challenges with unsupervised LLM knowledge discovery, aka contra CCS What is CCS? Daniel Filan: Yeah. So first, I'd like to talk about this paper. It is called Challenges with Unsupervised LLM Knowledge Discovery, and the authors are Sebastian Farquhar, you, Zachary Kenton, Johannes Gasteiger, Vladimir Mikulik, and Rohin Shah. This is basically about this thing called CCS. Can you tell us: what does CCS stand for and what is it? Vikrant Varma: Yeah, CCS stands for contrastive-consistent search. I think to explain what it's about, let me start from a more fundamental problem that we have with advanced AI systems. One of the problems is that when we train AI systems, we're training them to produce outputs that look good to us, and so this is the supervision that we're able to give to the system. We currently don't really have a good idea of how an AI system or how a neural network is computing those outputs. And in particular, we're worried about the situation in the future when the amount of supervision we're able to give it causes it to achieve a superhuman level of performance at that task. By looking at the network, we can't know how this is going to behave in a new situation. And so the Alignment Research Center put out a report recently about this problem. They named a potential part of this problem as "eliciting latent knowledge". What this means is if your model is, for example, really, really good at figuring out what's going to happen next in a video, as in it's able to predict the next frame of a video really well given a prefix of the video, this must mean that it has some sort of model of what's going on in the world. Instead of using the outputs of the model, if you could directly look at what it understands about the world, then potentially, you could use that information in a much safer ...

In today's episode of Pitch Cafe Podcast, we have Vikrant Karvir, CEO & Co-Founder at Pulse42.io with us!

Iqbal Dhaliwal, Global Executive Director of MIT's Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL), and Vikrant Bhargava, Founder of Veddis Foundation, join Alberto Lidji to discuss the power of evidence, the ASPIRE partnership and the innovative Emissions Trading Scheme. We also explore how philanthropists should decide what to fund, where and how to fund; why evidence is so important in driving forward policy change; and why policy itself should be a key focus in the philanthropic space.  The ASPIRE partnership (Alliance for Scaling Policy Impact through Research and Evidence) is a coalition of governments, philanthropic organizations, civil society groups, and research institutions.  The Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) is a flexible, market-based approach to solving the air pollution problem in India. It works by capping emissions for a particular pollutant, like particulate matter, in a particular area. It allows sources of the pollutant, such as industrial plants, to trade emissions permits among themselves. The capping ensures emissions targets are met while trading allows this to be achieved cheaply. The Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL) is a global research center working to reduce poverty by ensuring that policy is informed by scientific evidence. Anchored by a network of more than 900 researchers at universities around the world, J-PAL conducts randomized impact evaluations to answer critical questions in the fight against poverty. J-PAL co-founders Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo, with longtime affiliate Michael Kremer, were awarded the 2019 Nobel Prize in Economics for their pioneering approach to alleviating global poverty. Veddis Foundation invests in organisations working at the intersection of technology, policy, and impact. Veddis also partners with governments on policy implementation, effective public service delivery and governance.  Thank you for downloading this episode of the Do One Better Podcast.

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: Discussion: Challenges with Unsupervised LLM Knowledge Discovery, published by Seb Farquhar on December 18, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. TL;DR: Contrast-consistent search (CCS) seemed exciting to us and we were keen to apply it. At this point, we think it is unlikely to be directly helpful for implementations of alignment strategies (>95%). Instead of finding knowledge, it seems to find the most prominent feature. We are less sure about the wider category of unsupervised consistency-based methods, but tend to think they won't be directly helpful either (70%). We've written a paper about some of our detailed experiences with it. Paper authors: Sebastian Farquhar*, Vikrant Varma*, Zac Kenton*, Johannes Gasteiger, Vlad Mikulik, and Rohin Shah. *Equal contribution, order randomised. Credences are based on a poll of Seb, Vikrant, Zac, Johannes, Rohin and show single values where we mostly agree and ranges where we disagreed. What does CCS try to do? To us, CCS represents a family of possible algorithms aiming at solving an ELK-style problem that have the steps: Knowledge-like property: write down a property that points at an LLM feature which represents the model's knowledge (or a small number of features that includes the model-knowledge-feature). Formalisation: make that property mathematically precise so you can search for features with that property in an unsupervised way. Search: find it (e.g., by optimising a formalised loss). In the case of CCS, the knowledge-like property is negation-consistency, the formalisation is a specific loss function, and the search is unsupervised learning with gradient descent on a linear + sigmoid function taking LLM activations as inputs. We were pretty excited about this. We especially liked that the approach is not supervised. Conceptually, supervising ELK seems really hard: it is too easy to confuse what you know, what you think the model knows, and what it actually knows. Avoiding the need to write down what-the-model-knows labels seems like a great goal. Why we think CCS isn't working We spent a lot of time playing with CCS and trying to make it work well enough to build a deception detector by measuring the difference between elicited model's knowledge and stated claims.[1] Having done this, we are now not very optimistic about CCS or things like it. Partly, this is because the loss itself doesn't give much reason to think that it would be able to find a knowledge-like property and empirically it seems to find whatever feature in the dataset happens to be most prominent, which is very prompt-sensitive. Maybe something building off it could work in the future, but we don't think anything about CCS provides evidence that it would be likely to. As a result, we have basically returned to our priors about the difficulty of ELK, which are something between "very very difficult" and "approximately impossible" for a full solution, while mostly agreeing that partial solutions are "hard but possible". What does the CCS loss say? The CCS approach is motivated like this: we don't know that much about the model's knowledge, but probably it follows basic consistency properties. For example, it probably has something like Bayesian credences and when it believes A with some probability PA, it ought to believe A with probability 1PA.[2] So if we search in the LLM's feature space for features that satisfy this consistency property, the model's knowledge is going to be one of the things that satisfies it. Moreover, they hypothesise, there probably aren't that many things that satisfy this property, so we can easily check the handful that we get and find the one representing the model's knowledge. When we dig into the CCS loss, it isn't clear that it really checks for what it's supposed to. In particular, we prove that arbitrary features, not jus...

We spoke with Vikrant Singh, Co-Founder of BATX Energies, who recycles used Lithium-ion batteries to extract critical metals chiefly Lithium, Nickel, Cobalt, and Manganese.  BATX subsequently supplies these extracted raw materials as inputs to battery cell manufacturers to create a closed-loop Circular Economy for Lithium-ion Battery Manufacturing and Electric Vehicles. With a R&D center in Gurgaon and an industrial unit in UP, Vikrant lays the brass tacks behind India's energy storage supply chain and how various extraction processes, ranging from mechanical, metallurgical, and chemical processes can play a crucial role in serving an energy starved and raw material deficient region such as ours.  Hope you enjoy this TRANSFIN.

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: Explaining grokking through circuit efficiency, published by Vikrant Varma on September 8, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. This is a linkpost for our paper ''Explaining grokking through circuit efficiency", which provides a general theory explaining when and why grokking (aka delayed generalisation) occurs, and makes several interesting and novel predictions which we experimentally confirm (introduction copied below). You might also enjoy our explainer on X/Twitter. Abstract One of the most surprising puzzles in neural network generalisation is grokking: a network with perfect training accuracy but poor generalisation will, upon further training, transition to perfect generalisation. We propose that grokking occurs when the task admits a generalising solution and a memorising solution, where the generalising solution is slower to learn but more efficient, producing larger logits with the same parameter norm. We hypothesise that memorising circuits become more inefficient with larger training datasets while generalising circuits do not, suggesting there is a critical dataset size at which memorisation and generalisation are equally efficient. We make and confirm four novel predictions about grokking, providing significant evidence in favour of our explanation. Most strikingly, we demonstrate two novel and surprising behaviours: ungrokking, in which a network regresses from perfect to low test accuracy, and semi-grokking, in which a network shows delayed generalisation to partial rather than perfect test accuracy. Introduction When training a neural network, we expect that once training loss converges to a low value, the network will no longer change much. Power et al. (2021) discovered a phenomenon dubbed grokking that drastically violates this expectation. The network first ''memorises'' the data, achieving low and stable training loss with poor generalisation, but with further training transitions to perfect generalisation. We are left with the question: why does the network's test performance improve dramatically upon continued training, having already achieved nearly perfect training performance? Recent answers to this question vary widely, including the difficulty of representation learning (Liu et al., 2022), the scale of parameters at initialisation (Liu et al., 2023), spikes in loss (''slingshots") (Thilak et al., 2022), random walks among optimal solutions (Millidge et al., 2022), and the simplicity of the generalising solution (Nanda et al., 2023, Appendix E). In this paper, we argue that the last explanation is correct, by stating a specific theory in this genre, deriving novel predictions from the theory, and confirming the predictions empirically. We analyse the interplay between the internal mechanisms that the neural network uses to calculate the outputs, which we loosely call ''circuits'' (Olah et al., 2020). We hypothesise that there are two families of circuits that both achieve good training performance: one which generalises well (Cgen) and one which memorises the training dataset (Cmem). The key insight is that when there are multiple circuits that achieve strong training performance, weight decay prefers circuits with high ''efficiency'', that is, circuits that require less parameter norm to produce a given logit value. Efficiency answers our question above: if Cgen is more efficient than Cmem, gradient descent can reduce nearly perfect training loss even further by strengthening Cgen while weakening Cmem, which then leads to a transition in test performance. With this understanding, we demonstrate in Section 3 that three key properties are sufficient for grokking: (1) Cgen generalises well while Cmem does not, (2) Cgen is more efficient than Cmem, and (3) Cgen is learned more slowly than Cmem. Since Cgen generalises well, it automatically works ...

Abhishek Bhalla, the “Def-Savvy” national bureau head of India Today TV, is back after spending a day on-board INS Vikrant. The development of the indigenous aircraft carrier comes as a big shot in the arm for India's fledgling defence manufacturing industry. With INS Vikrant, India joins a club of select nations that possess the wherewithal to build their own aircraft carriers. On this episode of In Our Defence, Abhishek tells the show's host Dev Goswami about his thrilling experience of being on-board the massive warship and of watching the adrenaline-pumping scenes of fighter jets taking off and landing in the middle of the sea. Experiences apart, the two also discuss what makes the indigenous construction of INS Vikrant such a big deal and what it means for the Indian Navy's long-held dreams of having a total of three aircraft carriers in operation at the same time (currently, the Navy has two). The two also talk about the most crucial aspect of aircraft carrier: The aircraft themselves! With the Indian Navy right now having just about the number of fighter jets needed to operate two carriers, an important question is how and from where will the force get some urgently needed naval fighter jets. Tune as Abhishek and Dev chat about the achievement that INS Vikrant is and what it signals for Indian Navy future expansion plans.

Zachary interviews Vikrant Shaurya is the Founder and CEO of BestsellingBook.com. Vikrant shares his inspirational story of dropping out of engineering school and avoiding letting down his father who sold many of his possesions to have him become an engineer.  The next few years his parents didn't speak to him and he fell in to debt trying to pursue his entrepreneurial dreams. He eventually perfected a process to transform fuzzy book ideas into actual #1 bestsellers on the likes of Amazon, The Wall Street Journal, and USA Today. He tested this process on himself, with stellar results — earning six digits only two months after launching his own #1 bestseller, How to Write a Bestseller: Become a Bestselling Author, Attract High-Value Clients, and Skyrocket Your Authority. And this process is precisely the same one he's used to helping hundreds of entrepreneurs, speakers, coaches, and consultants become bestselling authors — despite them having neither the skill nor the time to write their own books. But it never ends with just a #1 bestseller.
