> Look at research in prompting: chain of thought, react, reflection, tree of thoughts, zero vs few hot etc. Then completion vs conversational interfacing. Then memory management via vector databases and prompt expansion vs compression vs progressive summarization etc.

Wow, that's a list of things that's completely new to me - thanks! Do you have any particular resources that you'd recommend for learning about these different topics?

Chain of thought: https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.11903 ReAct: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.03629 Reflexion: https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.11366 Tree of thoughts: https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.10601

Good video on "Tree of thoughts" which also reviews / puts it in the context of other methods: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut5kp56wW_4

Completion vs conversational interface is something you can read about in the OpenAI API documentation.

For the remaining things I don't have single specific pointer at hand.

Would also love to see resources!
