The Illustrated Retrieval Transformer

Read Original

This article details DeepMind's RETRO (Retrieval-Enhanced Transformer) model, which matches GPT-3's performance using only 4% of the parameters by retrieving information from a database. It discusses the shift from simply scaling model size to augmenting models with external knowledge retrieval, separating linguistic patterns from factual world knowledge to improve efficiency and capability in language models.
