  • LLMs undergo training to recognize meanings and correlations among words.
    • It enhances their ability to understand and generate text.
  • The effectiveness of LLMs improves as they receive more training data.
  • Training data for LLMs typically comprises Wikipedia, OpenWebText, and the Common Crawl Corpus. 
  • These datasets consist of large text information that the models use to understand and produce human-like language.

  • Ease of discovering Insights: LLMs can look at big amounts of text data and find important information and trends which help researchers and businesses learn more from their data
  • Quality of Datasets: There are issues of quality datasets in the Indian language as this AI model can communicate in 11 languages. 
  • High probability of Inaccuracy: The synthetic datasets generated artificially can create inaccurate answers. 
  • Bias and Fairness: LLMs may unknowingly carry biases from the data they learn from, resulting in unfair treatment towards certain groups or people.
  • Security Risks: LLMs might be vulnerable to attacks where bad inputs are used to trick them into giving wrong results.
