This is an attempt at a step in the direction of models determining which samples are relevant for themselves. We can use the CLIP similarities to re-weigh the loss of the captioner. It's kind of like finer filtering.

Some notes:
prior(gs) = 1.0
evidence(gs) = clip similarity over local batch
posterior = ???

currently I just do posterior = evidence but this isn't smart, there is some clever way I just need to think about it more. It's not great during the beginning of training when your CLIP model still sucks because then evidence is just 1/bs always so you effectively just divide your learning rate by batch size. There's some clever thing to do here like the closer you are to the beginning distribution the less you pay attention to CLIP and the more the distribution becomes interesting the more you pay attention to it. Or you can just put it on a schedule like the learning rate.
