DescriptionIntroduces Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), combining parametric memory (language model weights) with non-parametric memory (dense retrieval over Wikipedia) for knowledge-intensive NLP tasks. RAG models achieve state-of-the-art on open-domain QA benchmarks and produce more specific, factual, and diverse responses than pure parametric models.PPO introduces a clipped surrogate objective that constrains policy update step sizes, achieving the stability of trust-region methods (TRPO) with the simplicity and scalability of first-order optimizers. It quickly became the dominant RL algorithm for training large language models with human feedback.
