Summary

• What is new: A Divide-and-Conquer program to guide Large Language Models (LLMs) for better handling tasks with repetitive sub-tasks and deceptive content.
• Why this is important: Existing prompting strategies for LLMs struggle with tasks involving repetitive sub-tasks or deceptive contents, like arithmetic calculation and fake news detection.
• What the research proposes: A Divide-and-Conquer strategy that enhances LLMs’ ability to process complex tasks by improving task decomposition, sub-task resolution, and resolution assembly.
• Results: This method outperforms typical prompting strategies in accurately handling tasks prone to intermediate errors and deceptive contents.
