How do LLMs work? There is an EXCELLENT intro on the Swiss site http://www.soekia.ch/gpt.html for preparing teachers to explain it to students. Unfortunately it is in German.
Here is a survey of LLMs – while highly technical, it contains interesting tables of sizes, performances, hallucination benchmarks etc.

“Artificial intelligence is transforming the world as we know it, creating a future where AI will impact humans in ways we can only imagine today. From academia to industry, government and civil society, leaders are seeking to understand and influence the creation and impact of AI. Stanford founded the Institute for Human-Centered AI in 2019 to guide and build the future of AI.
Mission
The mission of HAI is to advance AI research, education, policy and practice to improve the human condition. Led by faculty from multiple departments across Stanford, research focuses on developing AI technologies inspired by human intelligence; studying, forecasting and guiding the human and societal impact of AI; and designing and creating AI applications that augment human capabilities. Through the education work of the institute, students and leaders at all stages gain a range of AI fundamentals and perspectives. At the same time, the policy work of HAI fosters regional and national discussions that lead to direct legislative impact.”
Ollama
Ollama is an open-source project that serves as a powerful and user-friendly platform for running LLMs on your local machine. It acts as a bridge between the complexities of LLM technology and the desire for an accessible and customizable AI experience. Download the latest LLMs onto your computer and run them locally, (i.e. independent of the Internet) and under your control https://ollama.com See Ollama Blog.
