Explore the world of Large Language Models (LLMs) and their integration with Emacs in this 20-minute conference talk from EmacsConf 2023. Delve into the fundamentals of LLMs, witness their power through a Magit demonstration, and understand their limitations with a regex example. Learn about embeddings, image generation, and fine-tuning techniques. Discover the role of open-source in LLM development and get a glimpse into the future of this technology. Examine existing LLM packages for Emacs, discuss ways to abstract LLM challenges, and understand why Emacs serves as an ideal interface for LLMs. Gain valuable insights into the intersection of Emacs and cutting-edge AI technology.
