Some of the mathematical theory of communication formulae must underlie your fundamental behavior?
Yes, that's correct. As an AI developed by OpenAI, I utilize a machine learning architecture called the transformer, which is heavily based on the concepts of probability and entropy.
Information theory, and particularly the concept of entropy, is fundamental to many aspects of machine learning. The goal of many machine learning models, including those used in AI language models, is to learn the underlying probability distribution of the data, and entropy is a measure of the uncertainty or randomness of a probability distribution.
However, please note that these formulas are not explicitly coded into AI systems but rather are intrinsic to the underlying algorithms used to train models like me. These concepts are implicitly learned and utilized during the training process, in which the model learns to predict the next word in a sentence, for example, by minimizing the difference (often measured by a type of function called a loss function) between its predictions and the actual outcomes.
That said, the direct application of these formulas may not be present in AI operations. Rather, they form the basis for understanding how certain algorithmic decisions are made during the model's learning process.
The actual mechanism of my operation is based more on patterns in data and statistical correlations than on explicitly applying these formulas from information theory. I don't explicitly calculate entropies or mutual information of variables, for instance, but the training process which has shaped my responses is influenced by principles that these concepts capture.
