Large Model
A large model refers to a machine learning model built on deep learning techniques and characterized by a substantial number of parameters, encompassing language, vision, multimodal, and other types. Through pre-training on massive datasets, such models acquire general knowledge representations and reasoning capabilities. They can be adapted to downstream tasks including question answering, generation, classification, and translation via fine-tuning or prompt engineering, representing a mainstream technical paradigm in contemporary artificial intelligence.
Core Facts
The stronger a model's capabilities and the more external tools it can invoke, the broader its potential attack surface—this is a fundamental dilemma facing AI vendors.
Function Calling (Tool Use) is a standardized mechanism for large models to invoke external tools, where developers pre-declare tool names, descriptions, and parameter schemas, and the model autonomously determines when to make a call.
When the same AI model is given prompts of different quality, the output results can differ by an order of magnitude.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Training and running large models requires large GPU clusters, high-speed interconnect networks, and supporting power facilities, and these investments carry extremely high fixed costs and long construction cycles.
Large-model conversational capabilities bring problems such as response latency, hallucination risk, and rising costs.
When looking only at absolute benchmark scores, the gaps among leading models often seesaw back and forth within a few percentage points.
Large models are often trained to be friendlier and more positive in conversation.
The blogger suggests adding large-model features (such as intelligent customer service, document Q&A, and code generation) to existing Java projects (such as e-commerce and OA systems) during learning, to form a composite 'Java + large model' resume.
The pricing differences between models of different sizes (such as lightweight versions and flagship versions) can reach tens of times.
The hallucination problem of early large models stems from the model's inability to understand what text means in the human world, generating content only based on contextual probabilities.
The process from training to inference of large models includes three stages: pre-training, fine-tuning, and inference.
In just two years, 63% of domestic enterprises have been building large-model applications.
Enabling an agent to answer questions based on an enterprise's own materials typically relies on retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) technology, that is, first retrieving relevant content from the enterprise's own materials and then having the large model organize the answer.
