Specialists vs Generalists: When Task-Specific Models Outperform GPT
By
–
There are instances where “doing well on one specific task” is better than being “a generalist”. GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 are generalists. They perform reasonably well on many language tasks without having to adapt them to any of those tasks, but their performances are limited in
