Large language models are high-capacity neural sequence models trained on massive text and multimodal corpora to perform language understanding, generation, and reasoning. Current work examines their internal representations, cognitive and social behavior analogies to humans, and limitations in mathematical, causal, and strategic reasoning. Research also addresses alignment with human values and brain activity, safety and security vulnerabilities, privacy and de-anonymization risks, cross-lingual and sociocultural biases, scaling and efficiency laws, and frameworks for tool use, multi-agent interaction, and domain-specific deployment.

For years, the guiding assumption of artificial intelligence has been simple: an AI is only as good as the data it has seen. Feed it more, train it longer, and it performs better. Feed it less, and it stumbles. A new study ...
