Contamination in large language models (LLMs), and machine learning more broadly, refers to the inclusion of equal --or very similar-- examples in both training and test sets. This phenomenon usually translates into better test performance. Here we explore when this contamination is performed intent
Despite possessing impressive skills, Large Language Models (LLMs) often fail unpre-dictably, demonstrating inconsistent success in even basic common sense reasoning tasks. This unpredictability poses a significant challenge to ensuring their safe deployment, as identifying and operating within a re…
Even with obvious deficiencies, large prompt-commanded multimodal models are proving to be flexible cognitive tools representing an unprecedented generality. But the directness, diversity, and degree of user interaction create a distinctive “human-centred generality” (HCG), rather than a fully auton…
We present a framework for analysing the impact of AI on occupations. This framework maps 59 generic tasks from different occupational datasets to 14 cognitive abilities and these to a comprehensive list of 328 AI benchmarks used to evaluate research intensity in AI. The use of cognitive abilities…
One of challenges of artificial intelligence as a whole is robustness. Many issues such as adversarial examples, out of distribution performance, Clever Hans phenomena, and the wider areas of AI evaluation and explainable AI, have to do with the following question: Did the system fail because it is…
