Large Causal Models from Large Language Models

arxiv.org/abs/2512.07796
Large Causal Models from Large Language Models
We introduce a new paradigm for building large causal models (LCMs) that exploits the enormous potential latent in today's large language models (LLMs). We describe our ongoing experiments with an implemented...
