Motivation

  • might benefit from augmentation by a more deliberate “System 2” planning process that (1) maintains and explores diverse alternatives for current choices instead of just picking one, and (2) evaluates its current status and actively looks ahead or backtracks to make more global decisions.
  • search through a combinatorial problem space, represented as a tree. We thus propose the Tree of Thoughts (ToT) framework for general problem solving with language models.
