A new research paper explores whether in-context learning (ICL) capabilities of large sequence models can support intrinsic curiosity in machine learning. The study investigates if an exploration policy can be trained to maximize learning progress using only the prediction errors and context manipulations of an ICL model, thereby eliminating the need for computationally expensive gradient descent updates. While the research proves this is generally impossible in Markov decision processes due to biased rewards or implementation challenges with ICL, it demonstrates a positive result for non-temporal settings like active learning and Bayesian experimental design. Experiments across various environments confirm that this ICL-driven framework successfully trains optimal data-collection policies. AI
