Understand and Select Language Models (LLMs)

Behind Ayunis Core are so-called language models (also called LLMs – Large Language Models). These models generate the texts and responses you receive in chat. Here you’ll learn what you need to know about them.

What is a Language Model?

A language model is software trained on vast amounts of text. Through this training, it has learned how language is structured and can independently generate texts, answer questions, summarize content, or translate. The responses are generated word by word based on probabilities – the model “calculates” which word fits best next.

Important: AI is Not a Reference Book

Language models generate texts based on probabilities – not by looking things up in a database. Always check AI responses for accuracy before using them. Specifically, this means:

• Always verify facts – The AI can provide plausible-sounding but incorrect information
• No real-time knowledge – Without internet research enabled, the AI only knows its training data
• Same question, different answer – The AI can answer the same question differently

Available Models

Which language models are available to you is determined by your administrator. The default model for your organization is also set by the administrator. You can see the available models in the model selector in the chat input area. Each model is shown with a star indicator that indicates its performance tier (see Model Tiers).

Which Model Should I Choose?

When creating a chat, you can select a language model from the models enabled by your administrator.

Your Organization’s Default Model

Your administrator has set a default model for your organization. This model is automatically suggested when you start a new chat. It is suitable for most everyday tasks. You can set your own default model in your chat settings, which will override the organization setting for you.

Tip

If you’re unsure, simply use your organization’s default model. You can switch the model at any time during a chat if you’re not satisfied with the result.

Model Tiers

Each model belongs to a tier that indicates its performance and credit consumption. You can recognize the tier by a star indicator next to the model name:

Stars	Tier	Recommended For	Credit Consumption
☆☆☆	Very Basic	Only recommended when your credit allowance is exhausted	Very low
★☆☆	Basic	Very simple tasks and short questions	Low
★★☆	Standard	The default for most tasks, particularly well-suited for writing	Medium
★★★	Powerful	Complex logic, research, and recognizing contextual relationships	High

Credit Consumption

Credit consumption is only relevant for customers on a usage-based plan with a credit allowance. Higher tiers consume more credits per message from your allowance.

Switching Models During a Chat

You can also switch the language model within an active chat:

1. Click the model selection in the input area
2. Select another model from the list
3. Your next message will be answered with the new model

The previous conversation history remains intact.
