LLM (Large Language Model)
Artificial Intelligence systems using deep learning networks trained on a large amount of data. LLMs – such as Google Bard, OpenAI's GPT models, Meta's LLaMA and many more – were designed to "understand" and write natural language text. They can operate as next-level chatbots capable of reading and responding to many different languages – but they're also highly capable when it comes to writing and analyzing software code.
They are not generally considered to be sentient beings, but as of 2023, they frequently display such a subtle and broad command of language that they do an excellent impression. Along with their stunning writing ability, they're also proving extremely capable of performing a wide range of other tasks, and some believe LLMs will eventually form the foundation of the first artificial general superintelligence.

LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman sat down for a video interview with an interactive AI avatar trained on his own knowledge, words and voice. The results – while edited – are surprisingly convincing, right down to the messiest parts of our humanity. -
Earlier this month, co-founder and CTO Suzanne Gildert left humanoid robotics company Sanctuary AI and her beloved Phoenix robot to focus full-time on AI safety, ethics and consciousness. We spoke to her just weeks before she departed. -
AI has been surpassing human performance benchmarks for years. But its rapid rise has highlighted its areas of weakness: Trustworthiness, ethics, and producing unbiased and non-discriminatory content. As a result, the world has become more nervous. -
Stand back and take a look at the last two years of AI progress as a whole... A new report shows how AI is catching up with humans so quickly, in so many areas, that frankly, we're going to need new tests. -
GPT-4 is already better at changing people's minds than the average human is, according to new research. The gap widens the more it knows about us – and once it can see us in real time, AI seems likely to become an unprecedented persuasion machine. -
A robot that senses when a human is about to smile and simultaneously responds with one of its own could represent a big step towards developing robots with enhanced communication skills more conducive to building human trust, a new study suggests. -
NVIDIA has joined Hippocratic AI to develop AI-powered ‘healthcare agents’ that have already been shown to outperform other large language models and human nurses in specific tasks. But can these agents adequately ease the healthcare worker shortage? -
It can autonomously plan and execute thousand-step tasks. It can build and deploy entire software projects all by itself. It can research and fix bugs 7x better than OpenAI's GPT-4, and it trains and deploys its own custom AIs to solve problems. -
There's a non-zero chance that human labor and intelligence could be surplus to requirements in the mid-to-near future. That would entail a seismic shift in the balance of power and the way societies and economies function. Let's discuss some ideas. -
Working on these next-gen intelligent AIs must be a freaky experience. As Anthropic announces the smartest model ever tested across a range of benchmarks, researchers recall a chilling moment when Claude 3 realized that it was being evaluated. -
"The video contains no teleoperation," says Norwegian humanoid robot maker 1X. "No computer graphics, no cuts, no video speedups, no scripted trajectory playback. It's all controlled via neural networks, all autonomous, all 1X speed." -
This charmingly Japanese robot acts as a gaming buddy, taking the other controller and playing against you while chatting about what's happening on screen. It's designed to stave off loneliness, and teach increasingly isolated gamers to be social.
