Definition

Large Language Model: a model pre-trained on large text corpora to predict the next token, then post-trained to follow instructions and behave acceptably. "Large" has no fixed threshold — the label tracks the recipe and the resulting generality rather than a parameter count. The same architecture applied to code, protein sequences, or actions is often still called an LLM by convention.
