Key technical trends around LLMs and AI

In this section, we cover what we identify as key trends in the field of NLP and LLMs.

We will start with the technical trends, and later, we will touch on the softer cultural trends.

Computation power – the engine behind LLMs

As technology has advanced, especially in computing, many areas in tech have thrived, particularly NLP and LLMs. It’s not just about faster calculations and bigger parameter space; it’s about new possibilities and reshaping our digital world. In this section, we’ll explore how this growth in computing has been foundational for NLP and LLMs today, focusing on their purpose, worth, and influence.
