DescriptionPresents InstructGPT, which uses Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) to align GPT-3 with human intent. By fine-tuning on human demonstrations and training a reward model on human preference comparisons, InstructGPT produces outputs that human evaluators prefer to GPT-3 outputs despite having 100× fewer parameters.Introduces 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.
