Large Language Models Encode Clinical Knowledge

Karan Singhal, Shekoofeh Azizi, Tao Tu +27

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities in natural language understanding and generation, but the quality bar for medical and clinical applications i…

Transcending Scaling Laws with 0.1% Extra Compute

Yi Tay, Jason Wei, Hyung Won Chung +13

Scaling language models improves performance but comes with significant computational costs. This paper proposes UL2R, a method that substantially improves existing language models…

Inverse scaling can become U-shaped

Jason Wei, Najoung Kim, Yi Tay +1

Scaling up language models has been empirically shown to improve performance on a wide range of downstream tasks. However, if we were to observe worse performance as a function of…

Challenging BIG-Bench Tasks and Whether Chain-of-Thought Can Solve Them

Mirac Suzgun, Nathan Scales, Nathanael Schärli +8

BIG-Bench (Srivastava et al., 2022) is a diverse evaluation suite that focuses on tasks believed to be beyond the capabilities of current language models. Language models have alre…

Mind's Eye: Grounded Language Model Reasoning through Simulation

Ruibo Liu, Jason Wei, Shixiang Shane Gu +5

Successful and effective communication between humans and AI relies on a shared experience of the world. By training solely on written text, current language models (LMs) miss the…

Language Models are Multilingual Chain-of-Thought Reasoners

Freda Shi, Mirac Suzgun, Markus Freitag +9

We evaluate the reasoning abilities of large language models in multilingual settings. We introduce the Multilingual Grade School Math (MGSM) benchmark, by manually translating 250…

Rationale-Augmented Ensembles in Language Models

Xuezhi Wang, Jason Wei, Dale Schuurmans +3

Recent research has shown that rationales, or step-by-step chains of thought, can be used to improve performance in multi-step reasoning tasks. We reconsider rationale-augmented pr…

Emergent Abilities of Large Language Models

Jason Wei, Yi Tay, Rishi Bommasani +13

Scaling up language models has been shown to predictably improve performance and sample efficiency on a wide range of downstream tasks. This paper instead discusses an unpredictabl…

UL2: Unifying Language Learning Paradigms

Yi Tay, Mostafa Dehghani, Vinh Q. Tran +11

Existing pre-trained models are generally geared towards a particular class of problems. To date, there seems to be still no consensus on what the right architecture and pre-traini…

Chain-of-Thought Prompting Elicits Reasoning in Large Language Models

Jason Wei, Xuezhi Wang, Dale Schuurmans +6

We explore how generating a chain of thought -- a series of intermediate reasoning steps -- significantly improves the ability of large language models to perform complex reasoning…
