1. **[Can language models learn from explanations in context?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lampinen-2022-can-language-models-learn-explanations/)** *(2022 · 295 citations)* Large language models can pick up new tasks from a handful of in-context examples. The authors test whether adding explanations to those examples, as people do when teaching, also helps models. They took 40 difficult tasks and subtasks from BIG-bench. For each, one author wrote post-answer explanations for 15 sampled…
2. **[Language models show human-like content effects on reasoning tasks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/dasgupta-2022-language-models-show-human-like/)** *(2022 · 162 citations)* Ideally, abstract reasoning should not depend on what a problem is about. Yet people reason better when a problem's meaning agrees with the logically correct answer. Psychologists call these "content effects." This paper asks whether large language models, whose expectations come from human-written text, blend…
