There is a bit of a false equivalence between entropy of output distributions and creativity here. Is diversity really the same as creativity?

It's very early days for clients. I guess the support is not really there yet. However most publishers and eprint archives have settles on pdfs rather than html annoyingly, so this is one of our best hopes of accessibility for academic publications.

In the future better accessibility for screen readers of text (paragraph breaks), images (alt text), tables (control of reading order), and math formulae. It's up to the pdf readers too though.

Oh well if I made a spelling mistake that obviously invalidates my whole point. Thank you for teaching me that Finnish is a very special language -- just like the Finns -- such an amazing an unique people ;)

Loan words from Scandi are more common than you think. Eg Hei is a common greeting, tykätä is a common verb. For nouns there is even a whole paradigm for loans, a large number of which are Scandi. They are not necessarily easy to recognise since they undergo sound changes eg plaasteri becomes laasteri

Finnish is not so different dispute having different lineages. Even if we talk about morphology, sometimes it's simply that e.g. prepositions are affixed to the end of a word big whoop. There are many dimensions to language vairation. Finnish has a long history of contact with Scandi languages and a lot of borrowed words and logic. It would be good to have Estonian and possibly Baltic languages too.

ETA: It is differentof course just perhaps not as much as people sometimes try to say. You can definitely ruffle some feathers with this one given the uniqueness of Finnish is pretty central to Finnish nationalism.

It's already a requirement to vote. Really it's a "you don't need it but actually you do". Makes the whole anti ID card thing seem extra silly in retrospect.

Isn't the solution to just train the tokeniser on the same corpus as the LLM? I'm not sure why reusing tokenisers is so common. Anybody know?
