He explains that, in order to train a deep learning model to do tasks such as playing Atari games or recognizing written language, they use a data set that contains a variety of experiences, including those from internet searches and asian video games. He also mentions that, although the model is relatively small, it is still able to perform well on a challenging data set.
  • 00:35:00 In this video, Oriol Vinyals discusses how deep learning and artificial general intelligence work and how they are able to understand text and images. He also explains that tokenization is a process of breaking down text or images into smaller pieces that are easier to work with.
  • 00:40:00 Oriol Vinyals discusses deep learning and artificial general intelligence with Lex Fridman. The video covers how orthogonal modalities are represented in token space, how weights are optimized, and how the neural network learns.
  • 00:45:00 Oriol Vinyals discusses deep learning and artificial general intelligence, showing how the two are related and how scale affects the effectiveness of the models. He also discusses the difficulty of expanding deep learning models to larger sizes, and the potential for modularity in software engineering.
  • 00:50:00 Oriol Vinyals discusses how deep learning and artificial general intelligence are modular and how the modularity is achieved in flamingo. He also talks about how deep learning has progressed since flamingo was released and how there is still much to be explored.
  • 00:55:00 Oriol Vinyals discusses the benefits of modularity in neural networks and how it can be applied to artificial general intelligence development. He also discusses meta-learning, which refers to the ability of a machine learning system to learn on its own and improve its performance over time.
