We are facing a major disruption in the natural language landscape with the emergence of large language models (LLMs) with unmatched performance and capabilities to perform activities for which they were not trained. Language models have been used for many years in NLP tasks (e.g., BERT), but the increasing size of these models has led to the emergence of new skills for which the network has not been trained (simply compare the performances of GPT3 and tasks processed compared to GPT2).
These models allow… Read the full blog for free on Medium.
