In 2017, eight researchers from Google Brain and Google Research published the paper "Attention Is All You Need," introducing a revolutionary approach to natural language processing. This paper addressed the critical memory limitations of previous models like Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, which processed information sequentially and suffered from issues like vanishing gradients and slow training times. The new architecture, based on the concept of attention, aimed to overcome these challenges by replacing traditional memory mechanisms with a more efficient method, paving the way for the development of Large Language Models (LLMs).
