Analogy Generation by Prompting Large Language Models: A Case Study of InstructGPT. (arXiv:2210.04186v2 [cs.CL] UPDATED)

We propose a novel application of prompting Pre-trained Language Models
(PLMs) to generate analogies and study how to design effective prompts for two
task settings: generating a source concept analogous to a given target concept
(aka Analogous Concept Generation or ACG), and generating an explanation of the
similarity between a given pair of target concept and source concept (aka
Analogous Explanation Generation or AEG). We found that it is feasible to
prompt InstructGPT to generate meaningful analogies and the best …
