Claude Interviews Me About How AI Works
Matched: Artificial Intelligence
A blogger returns to AI-dialogue-format posts, this time discussing his academic theory of how transformers work with Claude Opus. His "Conservation of Predictive Meaning" theory proposes that AI models build up useful distinctions rather than narrowing down from vast possibility spaces, connecting transformer mechanisms like softmax to a 1950s psychometric axiom. The conversation demonstrates both the theory's claims and its limits, while modeling how custom prompting can scaffold careful reading.
