Abstract
Approaches presented herein can provide for the performance of specific types of tasks using a large model, without a need to retrain the model. Custom endpoints can be trained for specific types of tasks, as may be indicated by the specification of one or more guidance mechanisms. A guidance mechanism can be added to or used along with a request to guide the model in performing a type of task with respect to a string of text. An endpoint receiving such a request can perform any marshalling needed to get the request in a format required by the model, and can add the guidance mechanisms to the request by, for example, prepending one or more text strings (or text prefixes) to a text-formatted request. A model receiving this string can process the text according to the guidance mechanisms. Such an approach can allow for a variety of tasks to be performed by a single model.
