Learning Language from a Large (Unannotated) Corpus

A novel approach to the fully automated, unsupervised extraction of dependency grammars and associated syntax-to-semantic-relationship mappings from large text corpora is described. The suggested approach builds on the authors' prior work with the Link Grammar, RelEx and OpenCog systems, as well as on a number of prior papers and approaches from the statistical language learning literature. If successful, this approach would enable the mining of all the information needed to power a natural language comprehension and generation system, directly from a large, unannotated corpus.Comment: 29 pages, 5 figures, research proposa

An Evaluation of GPT-4 on the ETHICS Dataset

This report summarizes a short study of the performance of GPT-4 on the ETHICS dataset. The ETHICS dataset consists of five sub-datasets covering different fields of ethics: Justice, Deontology, Virtue Ethics, Utilitarianism, and Commonsense Ethics. The moral judgments were curated so as to have a high degree of agreement with the aim of representing shared human values rather than moral dilemmas. GPT-4's performance is much better than that of previous models and suggests that learning to work with common human values is not the hard problem for AI ethics.Comment: 8 page
