Key Takeaways

The video explains Large Language Models (LLMs) and their ability to predict the next word in a sequence, similar to autocomplete functions, and how they can be used to generate human-like responses to prompts.

Full Transcript

I'm going to explain large language models in 60 seconds if you've heard of chat GPT then you've heard of large language models or llms for short while this might make you think that llms are just chat Bots that's not necessarily the case an llm is essentially a word predictor meaning given a sequence of words it produces the most likely next word this is just like the autocomplete function on your smartphone the way it gets good at this is by reading trillions of words from the internet and learning which word should come next what makes llms different than pre-existing Technologies like autocomplete is that they can take this ability to Simply predict the next word and generate humanlike and helpful responses to prompts one can then take an llm tweak it a bit and turn it into a powerful chat bot like chat GPT
