Before the advent of Transformer, the field of natural language processing relied primarily on RNNs and LSTMs to process sequential data, architectures that had to process text word by word in sequence and could not perform parallel computation

VerifiedThe Transformer architecture underlying large language models does not directly process raw characters; instead, it first uses a tokenizer to split text into subword units, which are then mapped to high-dimensional vectors for computation.80% similarVerifiedLarge language models are based on the Transformer architecture and are trained on massive amounts of text data.77% similarVerifiedCompared to traditional recurrent neural networks (RNNs), which tend to forget earlier content when processing long texts, Transformers can analyze multiple parts of a text simultaneously.76% similarUnverifiedTransformer uses Positional Encoding to retain word order information while performing parallel computation.76% similarVerifiedTransformer-based large language models use attention mechanisms to uniformly encode system prompts, user inputs, and externally retrieved content as homogenized token sequences, making it impossible for the model to distinguish trusted instructions from untrusted data at the semantic level.76% similar
