In their words
The transcript segments this claim was taken from
“basically doing some kind of a synthetic data generation process and distilling it back into the weights and maybe having a specific neural net per person,”
“maybe it's a Lora, it's not a full weight neural network that's...”
“So it's just small, some of the small sparse”
“subset of the weights are changed.”Play from 22:58Report a misattribution
