Despite GPT, Claude, Gemini, LLama and the other host of LLMs that we have access to, a variety of organizations are still exploring their options when it comes to custom LLMs. Logging in to ChatGPT is easy enough, and so is creating a 'custom' openAI GPT, but what does it take to create a truly custom LLM? When and why might this be useful, and will it be worth the effort?
