Definition of LLM

LLM is another term that people are using for stuff much broader than what it is defined to be. LLM is an acronym for Large Language Model. They are a type of Natural Language. People are now using LLM as if they include knowledge bases and expert systems and things like that. If I ask AI about the terms knowledge bases and expert systems then I get confusing answers. There should be a better term than LLM but unfortunately everyone prefers to misuse a term than create something appropriate. I asked Claude and it agrees and said:

LLMs are being used for far more than their original "language modeling" purpose, and the name has become misleading.

The following are suggestions from Google Gemini.

  • Knowledge Synthesizers

  • Reasoning Engines

  • Cognitive Assistants

  • Generative Intelligence Systems

  • Neural Reasoners

I do not like any of them, however. Do you have a suggestion?
