  • Patent number: 12164868
    Abstract: There is provided a computer-implemented method for ensuring that a large language model (LLM) generates original text, including (i) providing or accessing a database of previous text that the LLM should not generate, wherein the database includes text used to train the LLM; (ii) checking potential continuations generated by the LLM against the database; (iii) when a potential continuation generated by the LLM matches text in the database, adjusting the potential continuation generated by the LLM to no longer match that text in the database, to produce an adjusted potential continuation, and (iv) storing the adjusted potential continuation.
