These models also suffer from posterior collapse, i. e., the decoder tends to ignore latent variables and directly access information captured in the encoder through the cross-attention mechanism.

However, the available NLP literature disagrees on the efficacy of this technique - it remains unclear for which tasks and scenarios it can help, and the role of the individual factors in sociodemographic prompting is still unexplored.

The study of argumentation and the development of argument mining tools depends on the availability of annotated data, which is challenging to obtain in sufficient quantity and quality.

For many NLP applications, such as question answering and summarisation, the goal is to select the best solution from a large space of candidates to meet a particular user's needs.

The ultimate challenge is dealing with under-resourced languages not covered at all by the models and written in scripts unseen during pretraining.

Coherent extracts are a novel type of summary combining the advantages of manually created abstractive summaries, which are fluent but difficult to evaluate, and low-quality automatically created extractive summaries, which lack coherence and structure.
