Multiple Choice
A research lab is developing a new foundation model with a limited computational budget. They are considering two primary approaches for the initial training phase:
- Approach 1: Train the model on an extremely large and diverse dataset, incorporating text from the web, academic articles, books, and code, using a general-purpose learning objective.
- Approach 2: Train the model on a smaller, but very high-quality, curated dataset focused on a few key domains (e.g., customer service
