    QLoRA: Efficient Finetuning of Quantized LLMs

    How can you adapt a model without updating all its parameters? This coauthored paper combines a frozen four-bit base with trainable adapters. Inspect its training setup and evaluation examples; fitting a model does not establish answer quality.

AI agents & automation · Understand the agent architecture · Chip Huyen

Start by defining the agent’s environment, available tools and goal. Huyen’s book excerpt connects planning to actual function calls, then explains why tool choice, parameters, results and completion need separate checks. It is a useful primer before choosing a framework.

Agents

Read the overview, Tools and Planning sections, then the failure modes. The examples explain how the next action depends on tool results; they also show places to involve a person.

Her examples distinguish a plausible artifact from a completed task.

Harness Engineering for Self-Improvement

Adversarial Attacks on LLMs

He treats the fast approximation as a way to generate hypotheses for stronger tests.

His later Rule of Two commentary adds state-changing actions and explains why reducing risk is different from proving safety.

The lethal trifecta for AI agents: private data, untrusted content, and external communication

Use the three-part diagram to identify private inputs, external content and outbound communication in an agent workflow. Continue to his November commentary for writes and state changes; the original trifecta focuses on data theft.

Start with the extraction definition and threat model, then the corrected results and limits before treating a preliminary test as privacy assurance.

Emergent and Predictable Memorization in Large Language Models

In the coauthored paper, read sections 2.1–2.2 for what extraction means and the model-builder threat. Then read sections 6–7: the revised analysis and Pythia setting limit what smaller-model tests can establish about sensitive training strings.
