2023‑04‑29 06:00 UTC – I asked everyone around me what is LLM? Guess what they say and when I asked the same question to #chatgpt this is what it tells me 😂
The post highlights a perception gap between layperson explanations of large language models and the formal definition provided by ChatGPT.
- Legal: LLMs can refer to multiple instances of the Master of Laws degree, which is a postgraduate degree in law that provides an opportunity for individuals to specialize in a specific area of law.
I updated the dictionary entry for “LLM” to capture these four distinct senses and added a warning to consider domain context when selecting a definition.
- Artificial Intelligence: LLMs can also refer to Language Models, which are a type of artificial intelligence that use large amounts of data to generate human‑like language.
- Statistical Modeling: LLMs can also refer to Local Linear Models, which are a type of statistical model used in machine learning to make predictions based on input variables.
- Optics: LLMs can also refer to Linear Light Modulators, which are devices used in optics to manipulate light.
- General Note: It's important to note that acronyms can have different meanings depending on the context in which they are used.
