A practical introduction to large language models in Python
This video introduces the latest book from PointBreeze Publications LLC on using large language models (LLMs) in Python. We discuss how to convert text into vectors, and how to use those vectors for searching text. Then, we illustrate text generation and how you can use LLMs to generate structured outputs, call tools, etc.
At the end, I briefly present the bonus materials that show how to use an LLM to interact with documents, and to automate scientific instruments.
