The paper introduces FlockMTL, an extension for database management systems that deeply integrates large language models and retrieval‑augmented generation into DuckDB. It provides model‑driven scalar and aggregate functions, cost‑based optimizations like batching and caching, and new SQL DDL abstractions (PROMPT and MODEL) to treat LLMs as first‑class schema objects. These features aim to simplify the development of knowledge‑intensive analytical applications by reducing the effort required to orchestrate heterogeneous data systems and manage LLM context.

arXiv:2602. 06470v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scaling training data and model parameters has long driven progress in large language models (LLMs), but this paradigm is increasingly constrained by the scarcity of high-quality data and diminishing returns from rising computational costs.

AdaFuse is an adaptive ensemble decoding framework for large language models that dynamically selects fusion units during generation. It uses an uncertainty-based criterion to decide when to ensemble, applying a diversity-aware scaling strategy in uncertain states while continuing direct generation when confident. Experiments on question answering, arithmetic reasoning, and machine translation show AdaFuse outperforms strong baselines with an average relative improvement of 6.88%.
