| Challenge: | Deploying large language models (LLMs) is difficult because they are memory inefficient and compute-intensive for practical applications. |
| Approach: | They propose a mechanism that fine tunes or distills small models that outperform LLMs . they use human labels to fine tune models or LLM-generated labels to train models . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms LLMs by using fewer training examples compared to few-shot prompted models using substantially smaller model sizes. |
