Long-Context Language Models (LCLMs) have emerged as a new frontier in artificial intelligence with the potential to handle complex tasks and applications without needing intricate pipelines that were traditionally used due to the limitations of context length. Unfortunately, their evaluation and development have been fraught with challenges. Most evaluations rely on synthetic tasks with fixed-length…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized natural language processing, with considerable performance across various benchmarks and practical applications. However, these models also have their own sets of challenges, primarily due to the autoregressive training paradigm which they rely upon. The sequential nature of autoregressive token generation can drastically slow down processing speeds, limiting their practicality…
Researchers from the OATML group at the University of Oxford have developed a statistical method to improve the reliability of large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT and Gemini. This method looks to mitigate the issues of "hallucinations," wherein the model generates false or unsupported information, and "confabulations," where the model provides arbitrary or incorrect…
Language Learning Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT and Gemini have shown the capability of answering complex queries, but they often produce false or unsupported information, a situation aptly titled "hallucinations". This gets in the way of their reliability, with potential repercussions in critical fields like law and medicine. A specific subset of these hallucinations, known…
