Scaling Laws for Neural Language Models
Discovered empirical power-law relationships between transformer performance (cross-entropy loss) and model parameter count, dataset size, and compute budget spanning over six orders of magnitude, providing the blueprint for modern frontier foundation model investment.
Scaling power laws hold primarily for pretraining loss; downstream task sample efficiency and multi-step reasoning require structured inference-time compute scaling.
Constitutional AI: Harmlessness from AI Feedback (RLAIF)
Introduced the Constitutional AI paradigm enabling models to critique, revise, and align their own behavioral outputs according to written principles without human-labeled toxicity feedback. Established the foundational technique powering Claude's red-teaming resilience.
Constitution design must be continuously audited for latent political biases, conflicting clauses, and nuanced real-world legal edge cases.
