LLM
読み方：L-L-M
Large Language Model. A deep learning model trained on massive text datasets capable of generating, translating, summarizing, and reasoning about text. GPT-4, Claude, and Gemini are leading examples. Forms the foundation of modern AI applications.
What is an LLM
An LLM (Large Language Model) is a neural network trained on billions of text examples. It learns statistical patterns of language, enabling it to generate coherent, contextually appropriate text in response to prompts.
Leading LLMs
| Model | Developer | Notable Strengths |
|-------|-----------|-------------------|
| GPT-4 | OpenAI | General capability, strong at code |
| Claude | Anthropic | Long context, safety, nuanced reasoning |
| Gemini | Google | Multimodal (text + images + audio) |
| Llama | Meta | Open source, self-hostable |
LLM Limitations
- • Knowledge cutoff: trained data has a deadline
- • Hallucination: can generate plausible but incorrect information
- • No access to private data without RAG or fine-tuning
Enterprise Applications
Content generation, code review, document Q&A (RAG), customer support triage, data extraction from unstructured text, translation.
