Large language models (LLMs)—the advanced AI behind tools like ChatGPT—are increasingly integrated into daily life, assisting with tasks such as writing emails, answering questions, and even supporting health care decisions. But can these models collaborate with others in the same way humans do? Can they understand social situations, make compromises, or establish trust?Large language models (LLMs)—the advanced AI behind tools like ChatGPT—are increasingly integrated into daily life, assisting with tasks such as writing emails, answering questions, and even supporting health care decisions.

Laser-based processes for metals are considered to be particularly versatile in industry. Lasers can be used, for example, to precision-weld components together or produce more complex parts using 3D printing—quickly, precisely and automatically. This is why laser processes are used in numerous sectors, such as the automotive and aviation industries, where maximum precision is required, or in medical technology, for example for the production of customized titanium implants.Laser-based processes for metals are considered to be particularly versatile in industry.
