So many things a model could do |
We’ve seen different cognitive actions that a model can take to answer a question, including:
- Just answer the question directly.
- Run a debate if it’s a pro/con question.
- Search a long text for relevant information.
- Decompose the question into subquestions.
- Run a web search using Google.
- Run a computation in Python.
- Write out reasoning steps.
In this chapter, we’ll use a model to choose which of these to run. We’ll look at two cases:
- One-shot action selection: Just choose a single action.
- Iterative action selection: Given the results of actions so far, choose the next action.
