LLM Based Augmentation

LLM-based augmentation leverages the generative capabilities of large language models to expand and enhance existing datasets for various natural language processing tasks. Current research focuses on comparing LLM augmentation's cost-effectiveness against established methods, optimizing data selection strategies for improved cross-lingual performance, and mitigating risks like the propagation of biases through self-referential learning loops. This approach holds significant promise for improving model accuracy in low-resource settings and augmenting human performance in tasks like forecasting, but careful consideration of potential drawbacks, such as the overreliance on generated contexts, is crucial for responsible implementation.
