Conversational Recommender Systems (CRS) are systems that leverage advanced machine learning techniques to offer users highly personalized suggestions through interactive dialogues. Unlike traditional recommendation systems that present pre-determined options, CRS allows users to dynamically state and modify their preferences, leading to an intuitive and engaging user experience. These systems are particularly relevant for small and…

Google researchers have been investigating how large Transformer models can be efficiently used for large natural language processing projects. Although these models have revolutionised the field, they require careful planning and memory optimisations. The team have focused on creating techniques for multi-dimensional positioning that can work for TPU v4 slices. In turn, these have been…

Large Language Models (LLMs), particularly those built on the Transformer architecture, have recently achieved significant technological advances. These models have displayed remarkable proficiency in understanding and generating human-like text, bringing a significant impact to various Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications. However, implementing these models in environments with limited resources can be challenging, especially in instances where…

Large Language Models (LLMs) have transformed our interactions with AI, notably in areas such as conversational chatbots. Their efficacy is heavily reliant on high-quality instruction data used post-training. However, the traditional ways of post-training, which involve human annotations and evaluations, face issues such as high cost and limited availability of human resources. This calls for…

Large language models (LLMs) have significantly advanced our capabilities in understanding and generating human language. They have been instrumental in developing conversational AI and chatbots that can engage in human-like dialogues, thus improving the quality of various services. However, the post-training of LLMs, which is crucial for their efficacy, is a complicated task. Traditional methods…

The technique of language model adaptation is integral in artificial intelligence as it aids in modifying large pre-existing language models to function effectively across a range of languages. Notwithstanding their remarkable performance in English, these language learning models' (LLM) capabilities tend to diminish considerably when adapted to less familiar languages. This necessitates the implementation of…
