A fascinating new theory, known as the Grand Unified Theory of Universal Language Models (GUT-ULM), posits a surprising connection between the architecture of large language models and the fundamental principles of cosmology. The framework proposes that transformer-based language models can be conceptualized as computational universes, where attention mechanisms within the model function analogously to gravitational forces. The intriguing idea gained traction in an online discussion on Reddit’s r/artificialintelligence, sparking debate and further exploration of the potential links between artificial intelligence and the cosmos.
