Realistic assessment of language models in a business context

The term Large Language Model (LLM) has become indispensable in any AI discussion – but what actually lies behind it? And what does it mean in concrete terms for a company planning an AI initiative?

LIVE WEBINAR: How intelligent are LLMs really? - Informatec

This first webinar lays the foundation. It provides an honest, technically sound understanding of how modern language models work – and helps answer the questions that arise in every boardroom and strategy meeting:

  • Should we invest in an AI initiative at all?
  • When does an LLM project make sense?
  • One key takeaway: LLMs are only one component of an AI initiative – not the solution in themselves. The quality of the underlying data is critical. A language model that is not supplied with the right, structured, and up-to-date data will fail – regardless of how powerful the model itself is. Garbage in, garbage out still applies in the age of generative AI and LLMs.

     

Your value in 30 minutes

  • Principle: Next-token prediction, training vs. prompt engineering
  • Strengths: Processing unstructured data, text and code generation
  • Limitations: Lack of logical consistency and causes of hallucinations
  • Success factors: Model selection, data quality, context engineering, evaluation, and safeguarding

 

Your Key Takeaways

A solid basis for decision-making to realistically assess the potential and limitations of LLMs – and to launch your first AI initiative on a sound foundation.
