Author Interview - Memory-Assisted Prompt Editing to Improve GPT-3 After Deployment

Explore an in-depth interview with authors Aman Madaan and Niket Tandon discussing their research on improving GPT-3 performance after deployment without model retraining. Learn about their innovative method of maintaining a memory of interactions to dynamically adapt new prompts, enabling non-intrusive fine-tuning and personalization. Discover insights on motivations, experimental results, cross-lingual customization, and potential applications in recommender systems. Gain valuable knowledge about interacting with large language models and the challenges faced during the project. Delve into discussions on model size implications, clarification prompts, and future directions for enhancing very large pre-trained language models.
