AI总结:

针对现有提示技术任务特定、通用性差且非专业用户使用门槛高的问题,本文提出HELP ME THINK提示策略,引导GPT3通过提问结合用户回答完成任务,在多类高难度任务上验证了有效性,为挖掘大语言模型能力提供了新思路。

摘要:

控制语言模型生成的文本并实现内容定制是一项长期存在的挑战。现有旨在提供控制能力的提示技术均为任务特定型,缺乏通用性,这让非专业用户在为自身任务寻找合适方法时面临海量选择。这类技术所需的投入(比如编写示例、解释、指令等)进一步限制了它们在非专业用户中的普及。本文提出了一种简单的提示策略HELP ME THINK,该策略引导GPT3通过提出一系列相关问题并结合用户的回答来执行任务,从而为非专业用户提供帮助。我们在多种任务上验证了HELP ME THINK技术的有效性,尤其聚焦于那些普通人类难以完成、需要大量思考才能执行的任务。我们希望本研究能推动开发非传统方式来释放大语言模型的能力。

英文摘要:

Controlling the text generated by language models and customizing the content has been a long-standing challenge. Existing prompting techniques proposed in pursuit of providing control are task-specific and lack generality; this provides overwhelming choices for non-expert users to find a suitable method for their task. The effort associated with those techniques, such as in writing examples, explanations, instructions, etc. further limits their adoption among non-expert users. In this paper, we propose a simple prompting strategy HELP ME THINK where we encourage GPT3 to help non-expert users by asking a set of relevant questions and leveraging user answers to execute the task. We demonstrate the efficacy of our technique HELP ME THINK on a variety of tasks. Specifically, we focus on tasks that are hard for average humans and require significant thinking to perform. We hope our work will encourage the development of unconventional ways to harness the power of large language models.
