The prompt “Translate English to French: cheese =>” is an example of zero-shot learning, as discussed in NVIDIA’s Generative AI and LLMs course. Zero-shot learning refers to a model’s ability to perform a task without prior task-specific training or examples, relying solely on its pre-trained knowledge and the prompt’s instructions. In this case, the prompt provides no training examples, expecting the model to translate “cheese” to French (“fromage”) based on its general understanding of language and translation. Option A, few-shot learning, is incorrect, as it involves providing a few examples in the prompt. Option B, fine-tuning, involves retraining the model, not prompting. Option C, one-shot learning, requires a single example, which is not provided here. The course notes: “Zero-shot learning enables LLMs to perform tasks like translation without task-specific training, using only a descriptive prompt to leverage pre-trained knowledge.”
