Extraction of structured data from unstructured text is a hugely impactful (tho less sexy) use case for LLMs Excited to have revamped docs on this use case

RLHF and Encoder Modules in Decoder Architectures
By
–
Sure I don’t disagree, but since all these were before RLHF finetuned decoder architectures, I am curious whether it’s still necessary to have an encoder module. LLaMA-Adapter would be an example of adding img2txt capabilities w/o cross attention.

Curiosity about empirical results in NeurIPS LLM efficiency challenge
By
–
Oh yeah, that makes intuitive sense. I am just curious about how this works out empirically. (The NeurIPS LLM efficiency challenge permits encoder, encoder-decoder, and decoder LLMs, so will will probably have to wait until the leaderboard is finalized haha)

Decoder-Only Architectures for Vision-Language Models
By
–
That makes sense. But you could also use a decoder-only architecture (with embedded image tokens as part of the input, as in LLaMA-Adapter, for example). (* This uses an encoder for the tokens, but it's still a decoder-only architecture due to the lack of cross-attention)

Comparison of decoder models with ChatGPT and GPT-4 after RLHF

! I’m mainly curious how it compared to decoders like ChatGPT or GPT-4 after RHLF

Comparing Decoder-Only Models to Encoder-Decoder Architectures for Translation
By
–
The original transformer is an encoder-decoder arch for translation. T5 is a great encoder-encoder that’s pretty good at translation. ChatGPT / GPT-4 is a decoder-only that’s pretty good at translation too. How does it compare to encoder-decoder architectures of similar size?

Clarification on inference versus pretraining data requirements

You mean during inference or regarding amount of data needed for pretraining?

Encoder-Decoder vs Decoder-Only Architecture Training Efficiency
By
–
You mean, assuming that both an encoder-decoder and a decoder-only architecture, the encoder-decoder is easier to train because you make better use of the data due to the masking pretraining tasks?
