NLP & LLM, what does it mean and what are the differences?

Let's start with a basic explanation of these concepts and then go into the differences between them.

‍

LLM (Large Language Models)

What is LLM?

Large Language Models (LLMs) are advanced AI models trained on huge amounts of text data to understand and generate human language. They can interpret, predict and create text that is astonishingly similar to natural, human language. These models often use deep learning techniques and have the ability to perform a variety of tasks such as answering questions, writing texts, translating language and much more.

Benefits of LLM

- Understanding complex language patterns: LLMs are adept at understanding and mimicking the nuances of human language.

- Flexibility: They can be used for a variety of applications, from writing articles to creating chatbots.

- Adaptability: LLMs can be trained to become specialized in specific fields or industries.

NLP (Natural Language Processing)

‍

What is NLP?

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field of research in computer science and linguistics that deals with the interaction between computers and human language. The goal of NLP is to create systems that can understand, interpret and respond to human language in a way that is both meaningful and useful. NLP covers everything from basic text analysis to complex language understanding.

Benefits of NLP

- Automation of language-related tasks: such as interpreting text, voice recognition and language translation.

- Insights from language data: NLP can be used to extract information and insights from large amounts of text.

- Improved user experience: NLP techniques can improve the interaction between users and computer systems through more natural and intuitive interfaces.

Differences between LLM and NLP

-Scope: LLM is a subcategory of NLP. While NLP is the broader field that encompasses all interaction between computers and human language, LLMs are specific models within this field.

-Functionality: LLM is focused on generating and understanding text, while NLP includes a wider range of functions such as text analysis, language recognition and translation.

-Complexity: LLMs are often more complex and require more data and computational power compared to more traditional NLP systems.

-Applications: While LLMs are ideal for tasks that require deep understanding and generation of language, NLP is used for a wider range of applications, including text mining, sentiment analysis and chatbots.
