Pretraining Curricula Enable Selective Fine-tuning

Sebastian A. Bruijns, Jirko Rubruck, Mia H. Whitefield, Kai J. Sandbrink, Fazl Barez, Christopher Summerfield

Transformers follow implicit curricula whereby some tasks are learned before others. However, how explicit pretraining curricula influence learning, generalization, and the selectivity of fine-tuning is unclear. This is important for AI safety, where fine-tuning is used to select…
