• Abstract: This study introduces a groundbreaking approach to simultaneous interpretation by directly leveraging the predictive capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). We present a novel algorithm that generates real-time translations by predicting speaker utterances and expanding multiple possibilities in a tree-like structure. This method demonstrates unprecedented flexibility and adaptability, potentially overcoming the structural differences between languages more effectively than existing systems. Our theoretical analysis, supported by illustrative examples, suggests that this approach could lead to more natural and fluent translations with minimal latency. The primary purpose of this paper is to share this innovative concept with the academic community, stimulating further research and development in this field. We discuss the theoretical foundations, potential advantages, and implementation challenges of this technique, positioning it as a significant step towards democratizing multilingual communication.

  This paper presents a novel perspective on the bidirectional causation between language emergence and relational structure of subjective experiences. We hypothesize that languages with distributional semantics, e.g., syntactic-semantic structures, may have emerged through the process of aligning internal representations among individuals.

  We propose a question alignment framework to bridge the gap between large language models' English and non-English performance. Experiment results show it can boost multilingual performance across diverse reasoning scenarios, model families, and sizes. We analyze representation space, generated response and data scales, and reveal how question translation training strengthens language alignment within LLMs.

  Large Language Models produce sequences learned as statistical patterns from large corpora. After initial training models must be aligned with human values, prefer certain continuations over others. We examine this practice of structuration as a two-way interaction between users and models.

  We present a complementary approach to improve language responses where multiple language model instances propose and debate their individual responses and reasoning processes over multiple rounds to arrive at a common final answer. Our findings indicate that this approach significantly enhances mathematical and strategic reasoning across a number of tasks. Our approach may be directly applied to existing black-box models and uses identical procedure and prompts for all tasks we investigate.
