Large Language Models (LLMs)

  • Large language models (LLMs) are algorithms trained on vast amounts of text.
  • They recognize patterns to simulate human conversation.
INSIGHT

How LLMs Work

  • LLMs function similarly to the human brain, with interconnected neurons activated by inputs.
  • These models analyze massive amounts of text data to predict and generate human-like language.

LLMs and Meaning

  • LLMs don't actually understand the meaning of words; they identify patterns and connections.
  • They use numerical representations ('embeddings') to determine word relationships.
