Chain-of-Thought Prompting Elicits Reasoning in Large Language Models Chain-of-Thought Prompting Elicits Reasoning in Large Language Models

Time: 2022

Abstract: We explore how generating a series of intermediate reasoning steps, known as thought chains, can significantly improve the ability of large language models to perform complex reasoning. In particular, we show how this reasoning ability emerges naturally in sufficiently large language models, through a simple method called thought-chain prompting, in which several thought-chain demonstrations are provided as examples. Experiments on three large-scale language models show that thought-chain cues improve performance on arithmetic, common sense, and symbolic reasoning tasks. The empirical gains can be significant. For example, using just eight thought chain examples to prompt a language model with 540B parameters, achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on the GSM8K benchmark for math word problems, even surpassing fine-tuned GPT-3 with a validator.

Large Language Models are Zero-Shot Reasoners Large Language Models are Zero-Shot Reasoners

• paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.11916.pdf
• relevant: CoT系列-Zero-shot-CoT [year 2023, Google]

Abstract: Pretrained large language models (LLMs) are widely used in many subfields of natural language processing (NLP), and are generally recognized as excellent few-shot learners with task-specific examples. Notably, a recent technique for eliciting complex multi-step reasoning by step-by-step answering examples—chain of thought (CoT) prompting—has achieved state-of-the-art performance in both arithmetic and symbolic reasoning, which do not follow the standard scaling of LLMs. Law of difficulty System 2 missions. While these successes are often attributed to the few-shot learning capabilities of LLMs, we show that LLMs are decent zero-shot reasoners by simply adding "let's think step by step" before each answer. Experimental results show that our zero-shot-CoT, while using the same single cue template, significantly outperforms zero-shot LLM performance on various benchmark inference tasks, including arithmetic (MultiArith, GSM8K, AQUA-RAT , SVAMP), symbolic reasoning (Last Letter, Coin Flip) and other logical reasoning tasks (Date Understanding, Tracking Shuffled Objects), without any handcrafted few-sample examples, such as MultiArith using a large InstructGPT model (text-davinci-002) Improvements in accuracy from 17.7% to 78.7% for GSM8K and 10.4% to 40.7% for GSM8K, and improvements of similar magnitude using another off-the-shelf large model, the 540B parameter PaLM. The diversity of this single cue covering very different reasoning tasks hints at a largely unexplored and unstudied zero-shot capability of LLMs, suggesting that high levels of multitask-wide cognitive ability can be extracted by simple cueing. We hope that our work serves not only as a minimal-strongest zero-shot baseline for challenging inference benchmarks, but also emphasizes careful exploration and analysis of the enormous zero-shot knowledge hidden in LLMs before formulating fine-tuning datasets or few-shot examples importance.

Abstract: Although large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities in language understanding and interactive decision-making, their reasoning capabilities (e.g. thought chain cues) and action capabilities (e.g. action plan generation) have been mainly studied as separate topics. In this paper, we explore the use of LLMs to generate inference traces and task-specific actions in an interleaved fashion, allowing greater synergy: inference traces help models induce, track, and update action plans and handle exceptions, while actions allow It interfaces with external sources, such as knowledge bases or environments, to gather additional information. We name our method ReAct and apply it to a variety of language and decision-making tasks, and demonstrate its effectiveness over state-of-the-art baseline methods, as well as improved human-practicable performance over methods without reasoning or action components. interpretability and credibility. Specifically, in terms of question answering (HotpotQA) and fact verification (Fever), ReAct overcomes the hallucination and error propagation problems prevalent in thought-chain reasoning by interacting with a simple Wikipedia API, and generates more interpretable human Task solving trajectories. On two interactive decision-making benchmarks (ALFWorld and WebShop), ReAct outperforms imitation and reinforcement learning methods by 34% and 10% in absolute success, respectively, while only being prompted with one or two contextual examples.

Inner monologue: Embodied reasoning through planning with language models Inner monologue: Embodied reasoning through planning with language models

Link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.05608

Abstract: Recent studies have shown that the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) can be applied in domains beyond natural language processing, such as robot planning and interaction. These embodied problems require agents to understand many semantic aspects of the world: the pool of skills available, how those skills affect the world, and how changes to the world map back to language. LLMs planning in embodied environments need to consider not just what skills to do, but also how and when to do them—answers that change over time as agents make their own choices. In this work, we investigate the extent to which LLMs are able to reason in such embodied environments using feedback sources provided by natural language, without any additional training. We propose that by exploiting environmental feedback, LLMs are able to form internal monologues that allow them to more richly process and plan robotic control scenarios. We investigate various sources of feedback, such as successful detections, scene descriptions, and human interactions. We find that closed-loop linguistic feedback significantly improves high-level instruction completion in three domains, including simulated and real desktop rearrangement tasks and long-term mobile manipulation tasks in a real-world kitchen environment.

Generative Agents: Interactive Simulacra of Human Behavior Generative Agents: Interactive Simulation of Human Behavior

Link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03442

Abstract: Trustworthy human behavioral agents can power a variety of interactive applications, including immersive environments, rehearsal spaces for human communication, and prototyping tools. This paper introduces generative agents—computer software agents that simulate plausible human behavior. Generative agents wake up, make breakfast, and go to work; artists paint and writers write; they form opinions, notice each other, and strike up conversations; they recall and reflect on past days while planning for future ones. To enable generative agents, we describe an architecture that extends a large language model to store an agent's complete record of experiences using natural language, synthesize these memories into higher-level reflections over time, and retrieve them dynamically. They act as planned. We generated agents by instantiating them in an interactive sandbox environment inspired by The Sims, allowing end users to interact with twenty-five agent inhabitants using natural language. In evaluations, these generative agents exhibit plausible individual and group behavior: for example, starting from just a user-specified notion that an agent wants to throw a Valentine's Day party, the agents autonomously propagate the party over the next two days invites, meet new people, date each other to parties, and coordinate to show up at parties together at the right time. We demonstrate through ablation experiments that the components of our agent architecture—observation, planning, and reflection—all play a critical role in the believability of agent behavior. By combining large-scale language models with computer-interactive agents, this study introduces architectures and interaction patterns for believable simulations of human behavior.

ChemCrow: Augmenting large-language models with chemistry tools Augmenting large language models with chemical tools

Link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.05376

Abstract: Over the past few decades, many excellent tools for computational chemistry have emerged. However, since most tools are difficult to learn and isolated from each other, their full potential has not yet been realized. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have shown strong performance in tasks in various domains, but have encountered difficulties when dealing with chemistry-related problems. Furthermore, these models lack access to external knowledge sources, limiting their usefulness in scientific applications. In this study, we introduce ChemCrow, an LLM chemical agent designed for tasks such as organic synthesis, drug discovery, and materials design. By integrating 17 expert-designed tools, ChemCrow enhances the performance of LLM in chemistry and generates new capabilities. Our agent autonomously planned the synthesis of an insect repellant, three organic catalysts, and other related molecules. Our evaluation, including LLM and expert evaluation, demonstrates the effectiveness of ChemCrow in automating various chemical tasks. Surprisingly, we found that GPT-4 as an estimator was unable to distinguish between clearly erroneous GPT-4 completions and ChemCrow's performance. Tools like ChemCrow carry a significant risk of being misused, and we discuss their potential harms. When used responsibly, our work not only helps professional chemists and lowers barriers for laymen, but also advances science by bridging the gap between experimental and computational chemistry. Part of the code is publicly available at https://github.com/ur-whitelab/chemcrow-public .

API-Bank: A Benchmark for Tool-Augmented LLMs A benchmark for tool-augmented LLMs

Link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.08244

Abstract: Recent studies have shown that large language models (LLMs) can leverage external tools to improve their context processing capabilities, moving away from the pure language modeling paradigm and paving the way for artificial general intelligence. Nonetheless, there is currently a lack of systematic evaluation to demonstrate the effectiveness of LLMs using tools to respond to human instructions. This paper presents API-Bank, the first benchmark tailored for tool-augmented LLMs. API-Bank includes 53 commonly used API tools, a complete tool-enhanced LLM workflow, and 264 annotated conversations, containing a total of 568 API calls. These resources are designed to comprehensively assess the ability of LLMs to plan step-by-step API calls, retrieve related APIs, and execute API calls correctly to meet human needs. Experimental results show that compared to GPT3, GPT-3.5 has stronger ability in using tools, while GPT-4 has stronger planning performance. However, there is still considerable room for improvement compared to human performance. Furthermore, detailed error analyzes and case studies demonstrate the feasibility of tool-augmented LLMs for everyday use, as well as key challenges that need to be addressed in future research.

Toolformer: Language Models Can Teach Themselves to Use Tools Language Models Can Teach Themselves to Use Tools

Link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.04761

Abstract: Language models (LMs) demonstrate the remarkable ability to solve novel tasks at scale with only a few examples or text instructions. Paradoxically, however, they exhibit difficulty with basic functions, such as arithmetic or fact-finding, that simpler, smaller models excel at. In this paper, we show that LMs can teach themselves to use external tools through a simple API and achieve an optimal combination of both. We introduce Toolformer, a model trained to decide which APIs to call, when to call them, what parameters to pass, and how to best incorporate the results into future marker predictions. This is done in a self-supervised manner, requiring only a few demonstrations of each API. We have integrated a range of tools including a calculator, a question answering system, two different search engines, a translation system and a calendar. Toolformer achieves significantly improved zero-shot performance across a variety of downstream tasks, often competing with larger models without sacrificing its core language modeling capabilities.
