Abstract: Example embodiments of aspects of the present disclosure provide an example computer-implemented method for improved prompting of a machine-learned model. The example method can include obtaining an instructive sequence descriptive of an instructive query, an instructive response, and an instructive trace of intermediate states from the instructive query to the instructive response. The example method can include inputting, to a machine-learned model, the instructive sequence and an operative query, wherein the machine-learned model is configured to process the operative query with attention over the instructive sequence. The example method can include generating, using the machine-learned model and responsive to the operative query, an operative response.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for training a machine learning model using a deterministic data pipeline. One of the methods may include receiving a first request to generate a deterministic training dataset: transforming raw training examples obtained from the raw data source into pre-processed training examples; assigning a unique index to each pre-processed training example; and caching the pre-processed training examples into the cache directory specified in the received first request; receiving a second request to use the deterministic training dataset to train a machine learning model, the second request specifying a start index; and in response to receiving the second request: reading, from the cache directory, the pre-processed training examples that have indices beginning from the start index; and providing the read training examples in an order of the assigned indices for use in training the machine learning model.
