Supplement Generation Training Boosts LLM Agent Performance
Researchers propose Supplement Generation Training (SGT), a strategy to enhance large language model (LLM) performance on agentic tasks without costly post-training of massive models. SGT trains a smaller LLM to generate supplemental text that, appended to the original input, improves the larger LLM's task-solving ability. This decouples task-specific optimization from large foundation models, enabling flexible, cost-effective deployment. The approach addresses high computational costs, long iteration cycles, and rapid obsolescence of large models.
