Plan, divide, and conquer: How weak models excel at long context tasks

Together AI presents research showing that smaller models using a strategic Divide & Conquer framework can match or beat GPT-4o single-shot on long context tasks, with benefits of lower cost, faster processing, and easier tuning.

From the source

Our research, "When Does Divide and Conquer Work for Long Context LLM?" (ICLR 2026), introduces a framework to study this. We found that smaller models using a strategic "Divide & Conquer" design can match or beat GPT-4o single-shot on long context tasks.
