The BharatGPT group — led by IIT Bombay announced that it would launch its first ChatGPT-like service. The group is backed by Reliance Industries Ltd and the Department of Science and Technology.
- The group built the ‘Hanooman’ series of Indic language models in collaboration with Seetha Mahalaxmi Healthcare (SML).
- Actually, Hanooman is a series of large language models (LLMs) that can respond in 11 Indian languages like Hindi, Tamil, and Marathi, with plans to expand to more than 20 languages.
About large language models (LLMs)
- LLMs are large general-purpose language models that can be pre-trained and then fine-tuned for specific purposes.
- It means, these models are trained to solve common language problems such as text classification, question answering, text generation across industries, document summarisation, etc.
- Large language models use deep learning techniques to process large amounts of text. They work by processing vast amounts of text, understanding the structure and meaning, and learning from it.
- LLMs are ‘trained’ to identify meanings and relationships between words. The greater the amount of training data a model is fed, the smarter it gets at understanding and producing text.
- The LLMs can also be tailored to solve specific problems in a variety of domains such as finance, retail, entertainment, etc., using perhaps a relatively small size of field datasets.
- It involves the training of artificial neural networks, which are mathematical models which are believed to be inspired by the structure and functions of the human brain.
- These can summarizes long articles, news stories, research reports;
- These can understand and answer questions, offer suggestions and engage in natural language conversation.
- These can assist developers in building applications and finding errors and security-related faults.
