Large Language Models as Contextual Machines

Large Language Models, such as ChatGPTChatGPT, are revolutionizing the field of AI. In this chapter, I explain that LLMsLLMs are not just deep neural networksDeep neural networks capable of guessing words in a sequence. LLMsLLMs are also contextual machines. However, they are contextual machines working at the token level of analysis without directly processing information on the conceptual level of analysis. The promise of using LLMsLLMs for a contextual analysis is discussed by emphasizing the importance of expert-based prompting.
