The Attention matrix contains fixed values that determine the syntactic roles of words in the input sequence, regardless of the specific context or content of the query

Each element in the Attention matrix quantifies the semantic similarity between words in the input sequence, which is directly computed without learning from the data.

The entries in the Attention matrix represent probabilities that indicate the relative importance of each word in the input sequence, as determined by the context learned through the query weights

The Attention matrix is primarily used to filter out irrelevant words in the input sequence, completely ignoring them in the final output as directed by the query weights
