GPT-3, based on a Transformer decoder, contains 175 billion parameters, making it one of the largest NLP models.
Transformers’ parallelizable design supports pretraining on massive text corpora. Attention mechanisms capture global dependencies, enabling learning of contextualized embeddings. Pretrained models can be fine-tuned for downstream tasks, facilitating transfer learning and reducing task-specific data requirements.
