I'm interested in more testing on the context side of things.
For my NLP pipelines, I batch n-articles together to process (extract fields from) in one prompt (final output is something like this {"1":[{}], "2": [{},{}]...}) in one message. Compute-wise it's inefficient but OpenAI charges by the token so it doesn't matter. It's very reliable on gpt-4 8k.
I was also pretty happy with the results on 4-turbo initially but it seems that once you go past 30k-ish tokens in context (needs way more testing), it shits itself. The indexes don't match anymore and n_final_output is different from n_articles.
Still, great model and even if the limits are lower in practice I suspect I'll get good use out of it.
Edit: With better prompting, it feels stable at n=42, ~42000 prompt tokens.
- phillipcarter 3y agoInteresting. I was skeptical about some of their claims regarding longer context, since it's been my experience that these models just get lost after enough of it.
- msp26 3y agoYeah, degraded performance on long contexts has been observed in plenty of other models [https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.03172 https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.03172] so I was cautious too. Unfortunately I don't have access to 4-32k. I would have liked to test that out too.
