The counter-intuitive empirical observation is that even though the use of likelihood as training objective leads to high quality models for a broad range of language understanding tasks, maximization-based decoding methods such as beam search lead to degeneration — output text that is ※ऍͷͳ͍ਤදจ͔ΒҾ༻͞ΕͨͷͰ͢

unprecedented number of mostly young whales have become stranded on the West Australian coast since 2008. The Australian Food Safety Authority has warned Australia's beaches may be revitalised this year because healthy seabirds and seals have been on the move. More than 50,000 seabirds, sea mammals and seahorses have been swept into the sea by the Holden CS118 and Adelaide Airport CS300 from 2013. GPT-2 w/ sampling จ຺ʹؔͷͳ͍ϑϨʔζ͕ग़ͯ͠·͏ 11

mostly young whales have become stranded on the West Australian coast since 2008. There has been an unprecedented number of calves caught in the nets of whaling stations that operate in WA. Pilot whales continue to migrate to feeding grounds to feed their calves. They are now vulnerable due to the decline of wild populations; they are restricted to one breeding site each year. Image copyright Yoon Bo Kim But, with sharp decline in wild populations the size of the Petrels are shrinking and dwindling population means there will only be room for a few new fowl.
