Summary
The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) has been significantly propelled by advancements in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and the development of Large Language Models (LLMs). With its focus on algorithmic modeling and language-specific tasks, NLP has been instrumental in refining AI’s ability to understand and process human language. Meanwhile, LLMs, with their vast pre-training on extensive datasets, have brought about unprecedented contextual understanding and generative capabilities. As these two fields mature, their integration presents an unparalleled opportunity to enhance AI systems, enabling them to perform more complex tasks with higher accuracy, efficiency, and adaptability. Integrating NLP with LLMs represents a significant leap forward in developing advanced language processing systems. By merging NLP’s precision in handling specific language tasks with LLM’s expansive contextual understanding, this synergy promises to enhance the accuracy, efficiency, and adaptability of AI systems.
This special issue seeks to delve into the synergistic potential of combining NLP and LLM technologies to push the boundaries of what AI can achieve across various industries.
