IET Sussex Events

A whole range of engineering disciplines are involved in specifying, designing, building and commissioning a process manufacturing plant. But it is the automation engineer who makes all the elements come together to manufacture the product. This talk aims to provide an overview of the automation of industrial production by briefly looking at some typical processes and examining the various parts that make up a process control system.

LLMs have demonstrated amazing abilities, but how do they work? And how does that compare to human abilities? This talk will explain how LLMs are constructed and what that tells us about whether and how they think. We'll discuss how simply learning to fit a model to a huge dataset of text results in something that looks intelligent and try to understand what lies behind that appearance.
