gpt-3 VS jukebox

Are generative AI models useful for learning a language, and if so which languages? Over 90% of ChatGPT's training data was in English. The remaining 10% of data was split unevenly between 100+ languages. This suggests that the quality of the outputs will vary from language to language.

I have doubts it was extensively trained on German data. Who knows about GPT4, but GPT3 is ~92% of English and ~1.5% of German, which means it saw more "die, motherfucker, die" than on "die Mutter".

Catalan was 0.018 % of GPT-3's training corpus. https://github.com/openai/gpt-3/blob/master/dataset_statistics/languages_by_word_count.csv.

>Certainly it is pleasing that they are not just doing Hindi, but some of these languages must be represented online by a very small corpus of text indeed. I wonder how effectively an LLM can be trained on such a small training set for any given language?

as long as it's not the main language it doesn't really matter. Besides English(92.6%), the biggest language by representation (word count) is taken up by french at 1.8%. Most of the languages GPT-3 knows are sitting at <0.2% representation.

Competence in the main language will bleed into the rest.

And from skimming their GH page, it seems it'd be costly to host as well

openai/jukebox: Music Generation

https://github.com/openai/jukebox The demo code is there.

I didn't even know about it until I heard Sam Altman casually mention it in an interview, I was expecting some basic tunes generator, but this is so amazing! I mean yeah the voices are not clear, it's muffled, but look at how far have image models progressed, if you applied the same amount of collaborative effort here, the results could be amazing! ElevenLabs showed how good and clear can AI-created voices sound. The only reason I can think of is that the Jukebox code is under view license only.

OpenAI had this figured out 3 years ago: https://openai.com/blog/jukebox/ . You could then even define your own text. Model is open source too.

They've had jukebox for a few years now, so I'm sure some new model will get released and explode overnight, like what chatGPT did.

That already exists

This model is designed to output raw audio.

However, there are many models which do output midi. That's actually much simpler, and has been done already a few years ago.

I thought OpenAI did this. But then, I might misremember, because their Jukebox actually also seems to produce raw audio (https://openai.com/blog/jukebox/).

However, midi generation is so easy, you even find it in some tutorials: https://www.tensorflow.org/tutorials/audio/music_generation
