Large language models (LLMs) are an indisputable breakthrough of the last five years, potentially profoundly changing the way that we work. As with any extraordinarily powerful tool, LLM use has both promise and peril — and that they are so general-purpose leaves real questions about how and when they should be used. The landscape is shifting so rapidly that static prescription is unlikely — but that LLMs are evolving so quickly also gives urgency to the question: how should LLMs be used at Oxide?

distil labs — Replace LLMs with Custom Small Language Models
Train and deploy custom small language models that are faster, cheaper, and just as accurate as LLMs.
Large language model
A large language model (LLM) is a neural network trained on a vast amount of text for natural language processing tasks, especially language generation. LLMs can typically generate, summarize, translate, and analyze text in many contexts, and are a foundational technology behind modern chatbots.[1] Biased or inaccurate training data can make an LLM's output less reliable.[2]
Random Tech Thoughts
This article is about using large language models (LLMs) to write code, but gets there indirectly. First it talks about what makes things, such as programming and maths, hard and what doesn’t via a couple of historical things. Next, I will expand on complexity – how much is baked into some activity, and how much … Continue reading Whetstone of Witte, complexity and programming

Why Do Large Language Models (LLMs) Struggle to Count Letters?
Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved unprecedented performance on many complex tasks, being able, for example, to answer questions on almost any topic. However, they struggle with other...

Why Can’t Powerful LLMs Learn Multiplication?
These days, large language models (LLMs) can handle increasingly complex tasks, writing complex code and engaging in sophisticated reasoning. But when it comes to 4-digit multiplication, a task taught in elementary school, even state-of-the-art systems fail. Why?
