Emmy Noether Grant awarded to Michael Hahn

As part of its Emmy Noether program, the German Research Foundation (DFG) is funding Michael Hahn’s work with 1.4 million euros. The project entitled „Understanding and overcoming architectural limitations in neural language models“ will develop new machine learning architectures that make AI systems more robust and logically capable. Current large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT are based on the Transformer architecture, which can fundamentally limit their logical reasoning abilities. The project will design model architectures that overcome these limitations and lay methodological foundations for more capable AI systems.

Many congratulations to Michael Hahn on this great accomplishment!
