- We have studied #GPT4 for several months. Initial curiosity has been deepened by intriguing findings that we share here arxiv.org/abs/2303.12712 Exciting time to pursue deeper understandings of emergent “sparks” of powers of generalization, abstraction, synthesis. @MSFTResearchAt @MSFTResearch we had early access to the marvelous #GPT4 from @OpenAI for our work on @bing. We took this opportunity to document our experience. We're so excited to share our findings. In short: time to face it, the sparks of #AGI have been ignited. arxiv.org/abs/2303.12712arxiv.orgSparks of Artificial General Intelligence: Early experiments with GPT-4Artificial intelligence (AI) researchers have been developing and refining large language models (LLMs) that exhibit remarkable capabilities across a variety of domains and tasks, challenging our...
- We just published a fun & interesting study, stemming from an exciting “prompting marathon” we ran over the summer. We focused on how to unlock medical expertise from GPT-4 without additional fine-tuning or expert-curated prompts. Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2311.16452…… @MSFTResearchMicrosoft Chief Scientific Officer Eric Horvitz explains how new prompting strategies can enable generalist large language models like GPT-4 to achieve exceptional expertise in specific domains, like medicine, and outperform fine-tuned specialist models: msft.it/6011izxEb
