Large language models use a surprisingly simple mechanism to retrieve some stored knowledge
Large language models, such as those that power popular artificial intelligence chatbots like ChatGPT, are incredibly complex. Even though these models are being used as tools in many areas, such as customer support, code generation, and language translation, scientists still donโt fully grasp how they work. In an effort to better understand what is going…
