If you have a question about this talk, please contact Panagiotis Fytas .

The scientific innovation in natural language processing (NLP) is at its fastest pace to date, driven by advances in large language models (LLMs). LLMs power multipurpose chatbots, search engines and coding assistants, unleashing a new era of automation.

In this talk, I will attempt to give you a sense of how and to what extent LLMs learn about language. I will show that they can retain remarkable capabilities even by training them under extreme settings, i.e. to perform tasks that might be completely incomprehensible to or impossible for humans.

This talk is part of the Language Technology Lab Seminars series.
