Artificial Intelligence / Unit 9 AI 0502 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Text Labels Itself
Captions available
The idea
Text trains next-word prediction for free — every sentence is a supervised example, with the words so far as input and the word that came next as label.
In practice
No annotator is paid: one shelf of books becomes millions of labeled examples at the price of collection.
Where people slip
Free labels made language the field's best-fed problem — the bill returns when bodies enter.
