Large language models (LLMs) [1, 2] have revolutionized everything from natural language processing to virtual assistants. These models are adept at both recognizing complex linguistic patterns and producing text that closely resembles human speech. In the biomedical space, we can make use of the potential of such models by creating chatbots for question-answering or for interacting with knowledge graphs (KG).
Biomedical chatbots powered by large language models can combine state-of-the-art language processing algorithms with medical understanding to help engage in intelligent conversations and provide personalized support. There are several LLMs and Biomedical LLMs that can be used for these purposes,… Read the full blog for free on Medium.
