Searched up "the I in LLM" using Brave Search to find the link to this article and got given this very helpful AI summary!

The i in llm

According to various sources, including experts and researchers, the “I” in LLM (Large Language Model) indeed represents Intelligence. LLMs are designed to mimic human-like intelligence by processing and generating vast amounts of natural language data. They utilize complex algorithms and neural networks to learn patterns, relationships, and context, enabling them to understand, summarize, generate, and predict new content.

In essence, the “I” in LLM signifies the model’s ability to:

  • Reason and infer meaning from text
  • Recognize patterns and relationships
  • Generate coherent and contextually relevant text
  • Adapt to new information and refine its understanding

This intelligence is achieved through massive training datasets, advanced algorithms, and computational power. As a result, LLMs have become increasingly sophisticated, enabling applications such as language translation, text summarization, and even creative writing.

In summary, the “I” in LLM represents the model’s core capability: Intelligence, which enables it to process and generate human-like language with remarkable accuracy and flexibility.

it just struck me that LLMs would be so massively improved by simply making them prepend "i think" before every statement, instead of having them confidently state absolute nonsense and then right after confidently state that they were completely incorrect.

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT a little more the past couple of weeks. It sounds confident and authoritative. What is funny is when you find inaccuracies. It seems good at knowing you're trying to correct it. I haven't tried lying to it when I'm correcting it yet but I wonder if it would also accept those even if they're nonsensical lol.
