Attention Mechanism

An attention mechanism is a selective amnesia device that pretends to seek the important parts of input data, yet often gets distracted by irrelevant information. In the labyrinth called Transformer it spreads its many heads to perform “focus,” but in reality it is a capricious probabilistic dabbler. Faced with vast parameters, it projects an aura of selfhood, yet ultimately obeys only the charismatic teacher data. Its paradox lies in its design to filter information, which in fact becomes a fortress of distraction.

Autoencoder

An autoencoder is a self-duplicating contraption of neural networks that pride itself on compressing input and reconstructing it almost identically. It stuffs data into a latent origami-like fold and then attempts to restore its former shape, only to often learn the identity function. Praised for compression, yet notorious for mere mimicry under its lofty guise. Though heralded as universal, genuine reconstruction frequently falls short. Researchers lament its ironic self-replicating limitations while poring over cryptic training logs.
