Since ChatGPT's debut in November 2022, it has garnered widespread attention and prompted businesses to compete in harnessing its potential.

In the initial months following its launch, a study by McKinsey revealed that the inclusion of generative AI (gen AI) capabilities could contribute an
astounding $4.4 trillion to the global economy each year.
Introduction to LLMs (Large Language Models)
• LLMs, or Large Language Models, are advanced natural language processing models designed for various text-related tasks.

• They harness deep learning techniques and transformers to understand and generate human-like text.

• LLMs have gained popularity for their versatile capabilities, including text generation, translation, sentiment analysis, and more.

• These models are pre-trained on massive text corpora, allowing them to learn language patterns and context.

• LLMs can be fine-tuned for specific applications, making them versatile and adaptable.
