Introduction to LLM
This page provides an easy-to-understand guide on LLMs (Large Language Models) from basics to applications for AI enthusiasts.
Chapter 1 — Why AI Security Is Different
First post of the LLM Primer VII walkthrough. Why LLM security is structurally different from traditional security — the collapsed code/data boundary, the probabilistic core, and the OWASP LLM Top 10 as a working checklist.
