Fine-tuning in low-resource (few-shot) scenarios is now possible for many new applications. However, these new AI applications relied upon a huge pretrained model to get there. Because the old approach of training from scratch on 100 labeled examples didn&amp;#x27;t work well. Thus, we want to distill the knowledge so that the model can be deployed in low-resource scenarios. [edit: I see your below comment about the concern about transformer cost. Agreed. This is one of the many concerns around foundation models that…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2108.07258/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
