How did "T5" transform natural language understanding?

Transcript

T5 transformed natural language understanding by introducing a unified text-to-text framework, allowing diverse tasks to be treated consistently as sequence-to-sequence problems. This versatility enables T5 to perform various tasks such as machine translation, text summarization, and question answering effectively. It was trained on the Colossal Clean Crawled Corpus (C4), equipping it with a comprehensive understanding of language, which significantly improved its performance across many NLP benchmarks.
