Large Language Model (LLM)
A Large Language Model (LLM) is an artificial intelligence model trained on vast amounts of text data that can understand, generate, and reason about human language with remarkable fluency.
Understanding Large Language Model (LLM)
LLMs like GPT-4, Claude, and Gemini are neural networks with billions of parameters trained on diverse text from the internet, books, and other sources. They develop an understanding of language patterns, factual knowledge, and reasoning capabilities. LLMs can generate text, answer questions, summarize documents, write code, and engage in multi-step reasoning. In the context of AI agents, LLMs serve as the reasoning engine that decides what actions to take, how to interpret information, and how to communicate with users. They are the brain of modern AI systems.
How GAIA Uses Large Language Model (LLM)
GAIA uses LLMs as the reasoning engine for its AI agents. The LLM reads your emails, understands their content, decides what actions to take, drafts replies in your communication style, and orchestrates multi-step workflows. GAIA supports multiple LLM providers, allowing you to choose the model that best fits your needs for cost, performance, and privacy. The LLM is combined with LangGraph for structured agent behavior and MCP for tool integration.
Related Concepts
AI Agent
An AI agent is an autonomous software system that perceives its environment, reasons about what to do, and takes actions to achieve specific goals without continuous human direction.
LangGraph
LangGraph is a framework for building stateful, multi-agent AI applications that supports complex workflows with cycles, branching, conditional logic, and persistent state management.
Vector Embeddings
Vector embeddings are numerical representations of text, images, or other data that capture semantic meaning, enabling machines to understand similarity and relationships between pieces of information.
AI Orchestration
AI orchestration is the coordination of multiple AI agents, models, and tools to work together in completing complex, multi-step tasks that no single component could handle alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which LLM does GAIA use?
GAIA supports multiple LLM providers. You can choose the model that best fits your needs. The LLM serves as the reasoning engine, while GAIA's agent architecture, built on LangGraph, handles the structured workflow orchestration.
Is an LLM the same as an AI agent?
No. An LLM is a language model that understands and generates text. An AI agent uses an LLM as its reasoning engine combined with tools, memory, and planning capabilities to take actions in the real world. GAIA is an AI agent that uses LLMs for reasoning.
