Evolution of Large Language Models
Large language models have evolved significantly over time, transitioning from earlier symbolic rule-based approaches to current neural net-based models that excel in detecting patterns through vast amounts of data. The advent of transformer models like GPT has revolutionized language processing due to their scalability and ability to encode extensive knowledge from training data, leading to the emergence of powerful generalist natural language processing machines.
