Hallucination Intermediate

Model-generated content that is fluent but unsupported by evidence or incorrect; mitigated by grounding and verification.

Model Failure Modes
Logits Intermediate

Raw model outputs before converting to probabilities; manipulated during decoding and calibration.

Foundations & Theory
Attention Head Intermediate

A single attention mechanism within multi-head attention.

AI Economics & Strategy
One-Shot Prompting Intro

One example included to guide output.

Prompting & Instructions
Scratchpad Intro

Temporary reasoning space (often hidden).

Prompting & Instructions
Differential Privacy Intermediate

A formal privacy framework ensuring outputs do not reveal much about any single individual’s data contribution.

Security & Privacy
Tool-Augmented Prompt Intro

Enables external computation or lookup.

Prompting & Instructions
Distillation Intermediate

Training a smaller “student” model to mimic a larger “teacher,” often improving efficiency while retaining performance.

Foundations & Theory
Transfer Learning Intermediate

Reusing knowledge from a source task/domain to improve learning on a target task/domain, typically via pretrained models.

Machine Learning
Multitask Learning Intermediate

Training one model on multiple tasks simultaneously to improve generalization through shared structure.

Machine Learning
Dataset Intermediate

A structured collection of examples used to train/evaluate models; quality, bias, and coverage often dominate outcomes.

Machine Learning
Parameters Intermediate

The learned numeric values of a model adjusted during training to minimize a loss function.

Foundations & Theory
Calibration Intermediate

The degree to which predicted probabilities match true frequencies (e.g., 0.8 means ~80% correct).

Foundations & Theory
Brier Score Intermediate

A proper scoring rule measuring squared error of predicted probabilities for binary outcomes.

Evaluation & Benchmarking
Activation Function Intermediate

Nonlinear functions enabling networks to approximate complex mappings; ReLU variants dominate modern DL.

Foundations & Theory
Weight Initialization Intermediate

Methods to set starting weights to preserve signal/gradient scales across layers.

Foundations & Theory
Normalization Intermediate

Techniques that stabilize and speed training by normalizing activations; LayerNorm is common in Transformers.

Foundations & Theory
Dropout Intermediate

Randomly zeroing activations during training to reduce co-adaptation and overfitting.

Foundations & Theory
LSTM Intermediate

An RNN variant using gates to mitigate vanishing gradients and capture longer context.

Foundations & Theory
Chain-of-Thought Intermediate

Stepwise reasoning patterns that can improve multi-step tasks; often handled implicitly or summarized for safety/privacy.

Foundations & Theory
RAG Intermediate

Architecture that retrieves relevant documents (e.g., from a vector DB) and conditions generation on them to reduce hallucinations.

Foundations & Theory
DPO Intermediate

A preference-based training method optimizing policies directly from pairwise comparisons without explicit RL loops.

Optimization
Reward Model Intermediate

Model trained to predict human preferences (or utility) for candidate outputs; used in RLHF-style pipelines.

Foundations & Theory
Softmax Intermediate

Converts logits to probabilities by exponentiation and normalization; common in classification and LMs.

Foundations & Theory
Privacy Attack Intermediate

Attacks that infer whether specific records were in training data, or reconstruct sensitive training examples.

Foundations & Theory
Orchestration Intermediate

Coordinating tools, models, and steps (retrieval, calls, validation) to deliver reliable end-to-end behavior.

Foundations & Theory
Text-to-Speech Intermediate

Generating speech audio from text, with control over prosody, speaker identity, and style.

Speech & Audio AI
Universal Approximation Theorem Intermediate

Neural networks can approximate any continuous function under certain conditions.

AI Economics & Strategy
Residual Connection Intermediate

Allows gradients to bypass layers, enabling very deep networks.

AI Economics & Strategy
Expressivity Intermediate

The range of functions a model can represent.
