Using Large Language Models in Everyday Life

Large language models have become an integral part of our daily lives. People can easily access systems like GPT or BARD to ask for advice. While basic usage involves asking simple questions, there are endless possibilities for leveraging large language models. One way is by using them as a data scientist, MLOps engineer, or general engineer to incorporate these technologies into their work. However, training your own large language model can be costly and inaccessible for the average person. Instead, developers can rely on cloud platforms like Google Cloud Platform, Azure, or Amazon Web Services to access large language models via APIs, enabling easy integration into projects.
