Greedy Decoding
Domain: NLP Fundamentals
🎯 Motivation
Always picks the most likely next token. Fast but can produce repetitive or suboptimal text.
📋 Concrete Example
The model always picks the highest-probability word. It might get stuck repeating the same phrase.
🔗 Analogy
Like always choosing the shortest path at each turn without looking ahead - you might hit a dead end.
