This is a cool paper, but @ChenLingjiao and team's recent research showed that with majority voting, performance can actually *decrease* past a certain number of agent calls. Check out x.com/chenlingjiao/s…. There's lots left to figure out how to best build compound AI systems.

This surprised us. If you call #chatgpt multiple times and take the consensus, the quality of the answer can get worse as the # of #LLM calls increases. We explain why this happens in our new paper and also show how to estimate the optimal # of LLM calls arxiv.org/pdf/2403.02419…

Missed opportunity to title this “call me, maybe”, nevertheless, a cool result!
A surprising finding: a larger number of LLM calls can incur worse performance of compound AI systems! Why and what is the desired number of LLM calls? We initialize the study of scaling properties of compound AI systems both theoretically and empirically: arxiv.org/pdf/2403.02419…
Cool result: As people deploy more multi-step inference and ensembling strategies with LLMs, we found that these scale in nontrivial ways. Understanding this kind of inference strategy scaling is a natural question if you're interested in AI scaling. x.com/chenlingjiao/s…

Introduce lookahead decoding: - a parallel decoding algo to accelerate LLM inference - w/o the need for a draft model or a data store - linearly decreases # decoding steps relative to log(FLOPs) used per decoding step. Blog: lmsys.org/blog/2023-11-2… Code: github.com/hao-ai-lab/Loo…

📢Excited to share my new blog post (petereliaskraft.net/blog/epoxy) about how to get transactions between almost any data stores. I'm presenting this at VLDB `23 tomorrow, so please stop by! #VLDB23
Awesome blog post by @muratdemirbas on our transactional caching work! But in defense of our paper title, it’s one you won’t forget 😉

This is a big release: we've spent the past 3 years working on LLM pipelines and retrieval-augmented apps in my group, and came up with this rich programming model based on our learnings. It not only defines but *automatically optimizes* pipelines for you to get great results.
