Draft:Generative AI & LLMs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Generative AI is a branch of artificial intelligence that aims to create new content or data similar to the input data. Examples of generative AI applications include text generation, image synthesis, speech synthesis, music composition, and code generation. Generative AI can be used for various purposes, such as entertainment, education, research, and innovation.

One of the most popular and influential methods for generative AI is using Large Language Models (LLMs). LLMs are deep neural networks that can process natural language and generate coherent and relevant text based on a given input or prompt. LLMs are trained on massive amounts of text data, such as books, articles, websites, and social media posts, to learn the patterns and structures of natural language. LLMs can also be fine-tuned or adapted to specific domains or tasks by using additional data or parameters.

Some of the most well-known LLMs are GPT-3 and GPT-4 by OpenAI, LaMDA and PaLM by Google, BLOOM and XLM-RoBERTa by Hugging Face, NeMO by Nvidia, XLNet by Google and Carnegie Mellon University, Co: here by Salesforce, and GLM-130B by Alibaba. These LLMs have shown impressive results in various natural language tasks, such as question answering, summarization, translation, dialogue, and writing.

However, LLMs also face some challenges and limitations, such as the ethical, social, and environmental implications of their development and use. Some of the issues include the potential for bias, misinformation, plagiarism, and abuse of LLMs and the high computational and energy costs of training and deploying LLMs. Therefore, LLMs require careful evaluation, regulation, and oversight to ensure their responsible and beneficial use for society.
