An LLM, or Large Language Model, is a type of machine learning model designed to understand and generate human language. These models are trained on vast amounts of text data and can perform a variety of language-related tasks, such as translation, summarization, and conversation. At WWDC, Apple discussed various tools and frameworks to deploy machine learning models, including language models, on Apple devices. For instance, the session "Deploy machine learning and AI models on-device with Core ML" covers how to manage key-value caches for efficient decoding of large language models with states, and introduces the ML Tensor type to simplify computational tasks.
For more details, you can refer to the session Deploy machine learning and AI models on-device with Core ML (08:30) which discusses models with state, a concept relevant to LLMs.
