The proposed CLOB paradigm revolutionizes continual learning (CL) by treating a large language model (LLM) as a black box, incrementally updating it through verbal prompts without fine-tuning or adding trainable parameters. This approach is particularly well-suited for LLMs accessible via APIs. The authors also introduce CIS, an incremental summarization technique that overcomes the LLM’s input length limit, achieving significant performance gains.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
CLOB is a new way to learn with large language models. Imagine you can teach an AI by giving it simple instructions, without changing its original settings. This approach is useful for models that can be accessed through special interfaces. The researchers also developed a method called CIS, which helps the model understand longer pieces of text and performs much better than previous methods.
