EMBERS OF AUTOREGRESSION FOR O1

Large language models have limitations due to next token prediction. However, OpenAI's o1 model was trained with a new objective over reasoning traces. Despite this change, o1 still shows signs of limitations due to next token prediction.

CONTEXTUAL DOCUMENT EMBEDDINGS

This paper describes a method that is almost like a neutral TF/IDF in that it takes information from the entire corpus instead of just a single embedding document. It essentially encodes contextual information about neighboring documents. This method is state-of-the-art on MTEB.

ENTP: ENCODER-ONLY NEXT TOKEN PREDICTION

This paper shows a novel design architecture for using encoder-only transformers as next token prediction models. This has been done in other ways before, but the researchers find a great way to prevent cheating. The models have hints of strong performance at scale and also are capable of in-context learning.
