Use Cases & Applications
| Domain | LLMs | LCMs |
| Chatbots & Assistants | Used for conversational AI, Q&A, summarization (e.g., ChatGPT, Bard). | Used for conceptual reasoning, deeper understanding, and multimodal AI assistants. |
| Scientific Research | Text-based retrieval and summarization of scientific papers. | Used in drug discovery, theorem proving, and causal reasoning. |
| Reasoning & Planning | Performs implicit reasoning via text generation but lacks deep structured reasoning. | Excels in structured problem-solving, symbolic reasoning, and long-term planning. |
| Multimodal AI | Primarily text-focused, with some models supporting vision (e.g., GPT-4V). | Naturally integrates multiple modalities (vision, language, structured knowledge). |
| Education & Tutoring | Generates text-based explanations and summaries. | Provides deeper conceptual understanding and domain reasoning (e.g., AI tutors with knowledge graphs). |
