Researchers report that a short, direct prompt with a few examples lets small open LLMs match more complex prompting methods on natural language inference.

The study tested five small models, including Gemma 2 9B, Mistral 7B and Llama 3.1 8B, on three NLI datasets using 0 to 15 examples and no reasoning steps.

According to a post by Rohan Paul summarizing the paper, Mistral 7B reached above 63.4% MNLI accuracy, beating the score a published in-context sampling method achieved with the same model.
