Large Language Models

Catalog description

This course introduces students from any discipline to how modern AI systems process, analyze, and generate human language. Building on a prior high-level AI course, students will work with real text data and pre-trained language models to perform tasks such as text classification (what is this about?), sentiment analysis (how does it feel?), topic modeling (what themes are present?), information extraction (who did what to whom?), and retrieval/generation (what should I say in response?).
