Large Language Models (LLMs) represent a domain of artificial intelligence that has seen remarkable growth over the past three years. ChatGPT has transformed LLMs into a global phenomenon. These models are trained with vast datasets and demonstrate impressive skills in natural language processing (NLP) tasks like question answering, text generation, translation, and summarization. LLMs belong to the broader field of generative AI (GenAI), which is multi-modal, encompassing not only text but also image, sound, and video creation.
Generative AI is significantly impacting the IT industry as major tech companies adjust their research agendas and business strategies to integrate these new technologies. Organizations are striving to harness potential economic benefits of AI while mitigating risks of leakage of sensitive personal or intellectual property data.
The evolution of AI is rapidly changing business practices, regulations, and technology. The ethical debates surrounding it are intense, as AI poses potential threats to jobs and can be used to generate malware and facilitate disinformation campaigns. AI also has a geo-political impact with export bans in place between the US and China on technologies and raw materials for chips.
The aim of this blog is to gather and present articles that discuss the advancements of these technologies and their impacts in a factual manner.
