Hopefully I’m not being offtopic here, but a recent paper suggested that repeating a requirement several times within the same instructions lead the model to be more compliant towards it.

Do you know whether it’s true or grounded ?

Thanks in advance.

What I wanted to experiment but haven’t yet, is to provide the models with markdown text whose both sections and paragraphs are numbered ; and instruct them to list the section numbers and/or paragraph numbers related to some topic.

The next step would be to extract the relevant passages using the list(s).

Has anyone ever tried this approach ? Any thoughts ?
