LLM (Large Language Model)
A language model with enough capacity and broad training to perform many language tasks through prompting or adaptation. Most current LLMs use transformer architectures and sequence-prediction objectives, but size thresholds, data sources, and training recipes vary.
Common confusion
An LLM is a model component. Tools, retrieval, state, policies, and product logic live in the surrounding system.
