A Deep Neural Model Instruction-Tuning Task is a model fine-tuning task that involves refining a Large Language Model's ability to follow instructions more accurately by training it on a dataset of instructions and their desired outcomes.
- Context:
- It can (typically) involve Model Fine Turning Data (of instructions and the corresponding correct responses or actions).
- It can (often) leverage existing model predictions and human feedback to generate the instruction-response pairs needed for tuning.
- It can result in the model learning to generate more accurate, relevant, and contextually appropriate responses to various instructions.
- It can involve using "self-instruct" approaches to improve response accuracy and relevance through iterative refinements.
- It can (typically) be solved by a Model Instruction-Tuning System (that implements a instruction-tuning algorithm).
- ...
- Example(s):
- Counter-Example(s):
- A standard Model Fine-Tuning task that focuses solely on adjusting model weights based on a specific dataset without using instruction-response pairs.
- A Transfer Learning task where a model is adapted to a new domain without explicitly training it to follow instructions more accurately.

- Using "self-instruct" approaches, LLMs have been able to bootstrap correct responses, replacing any naive responses, starting from human-generated corrections of a few cases. For example, in the instruction "Write an essay about the main themes represented in Hamlet," an initial naive completion might be 'If you submit the essay after March 17, your grade will be reduced by 10% for each day of delay," based on the frequency of this textual sequence in the corpus.[1]
