Why do many companies still need to build private AI systems by developing LLM applications locally when public AI platforms such as Yuanbao and Doubao are popular ? The key to the answer is: what is important is not to follow the trend and deploy a large model, but to create a business-driven AI application paradigm that can really be implemented .
1. Knowledge base revolution: from "single soldier combat" to "group army combat"
The fatal flaws of public platforms : ❌ Documents are uploaded in pieces : only one contract can be uploaded at a time, and a 500-page product manual must be uploaded 50 times ❌ Knowledge update is delayed : new versions of technical drawings need to be replaced manually, which can easily lead to AI "memory confusion" ❌ Data leakage risk : sensitive files are stored on third-party servers, which poses compliance risks
Solutions for local development of LLM applications : ✅Batch knowledge infusion : Upload 3,000 sales contracts + product manuals with one click, automatically split and vectorized storage ✅Dynamic update engine : When the ERP system updates the equipment parameters, the AI knowledge base is refreshed synchronously (such as the IoT equipment database of a heavy industry enterprise) ✅Enterprise -level security protection : Data is encrypted and stored in the enterprise computer room throughout the process, supporting permission classification and access auditing
For example , a manufacturing company built an after-sales knowledge base by developing LLM applications locally , and fed 20 years of maintenance records and 100,000 drawings into AI. When a technician asked "abnormal noise from the gearbox of model A", AI accurately retrieved solutions for similar faults in 2019, increasing maintenance efficiency by 40%.
2. Model parameter adjustment black technology: turning AI into an "industry expert" in seconds
The "fool mode" of public platforms : ❌Same temperature values : Legal documents and marketing copywriting share the same set of parameters, which is worrying for professionalism ❌Unable to dig deep vertically : Unable to fine-tune the model for industry terms (such as "EGFR gene mutation detection" in the medical field)
Expert mode for local development of LLM applications : ✅Precise parameter control :
Legal documents → Temperature 0.2 + Penalty coefficient 1.5 → Generate rigorous and unambiguous contract terms Marketing copy → temperature 0.8 + top_p 0.9 → creative advertising slogans ✅ Field fine-tuning tool : upload the "Medical Device Regulations Compilation" and let AI automatically learn professional terms
For example , the law firm adjusted the repetition penalty parameters to reduce the repetition rate of AI-generated contract clauses from 15% to 0.3%, which fully met client requirements.
3. Prompt word + RAG combination: Specially designed to cure AI "hallucinations"
The crash scene of the public platform : ❌Restriction of prompt words : It is impossible to embed complex business rules (such as multi-condition judgment or industry regulations) ❌Frequent hallucinations : When asked "our company's Q3 2024 revenue", AI may fabricate data
Tips for taming local LLM applications : ✅Three -layer logic of prompt word design :
Task definition layer : clarify AI roles and goals # Role Definition
You are a senior contract review expert and must strictly abide by the Civil Code and the company's internal legal rules.Process control layer : split multi-step tasks and introduce verification # Step-by-step review
Step 1 : Check the qualifications of the contracting party → Call the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System API for verification
Step 2 : Identify key clause risks → Compare the default case library in the knowledge baseOutput constraint layer : restrict answer format and data source # Output requirements
Reference Section 3.2 of the Knowledge Base document , “Default Handling Standards”, and list the risk points in a Markdown table format
✅ RAG enhanced knowledge binding :
Retrieve legal provisions and historical contract templates from the corporate knowledge base When AI generates answers, it is mandatory to associate at least 3 references
Example : A construction company uses a locally developed LLM application to generate a construction plan :
Input : "Generate foundation pit support plan for project XX, the geological conditions are soft soil layer, and there are subway tunnels around" Output process :
Search "Technical Code for Construction Foundation Pit Support" JGJ120-2019 from the knowledge base Retrieve the "underground continuous wall + internal support" solution from the construction records of similar projects Generate material usage calculation table based on geological report and automatically mark safety risk points
Results : The time for program preparation was shortened from 7 days to 2 hours, and the approval rate increased by 90%. Smart contract risk scanning : AI reads supplier payment records from the financial system in real time , and automatically marks high-risk contracts based on the legal department’s “Partner Blacklist.” Dynamic compliance adaptation : When the Individual Income Tax Law is revised, AI automatically scans all employee salary contracts, identifies the "year-end bonus tax calculation method conflict" clause, and recommends a revised template. Multi-source data verification : When the legal department drafts an overseas investment agreement, AI simultaneously retrieves the foreign exchange rate fluctuation data from the financial system , prompts the risk of "exchange rate lock-in clauses", and recommends hedging solutions. Integrated data sources : financial system (SAP), legal contract database, Bloomberg terminal (foreign exchange data) Functionality : When generating an investment agreement, automatically embed real-time exchange rate risk warnings When the agreement involves sensitive countries (such as sanctioned regions), AI cites the Ministry of Commerce's "Negative List of Overseas Investment" to intercept illegal clauses Results : Agreement drafting efficiency increased by 60% and compliance disputes decreased by 45%. Multi-model support and flexible expansion
Compatible with mainstream models such as DeepSeek, Qwen, and Silicon-based Flow, and supports custom model access Silicon-based mobile APIs are called in non-confidential scenarios, and private models are deployed locally in confidential scenarios to ensure data is not leaked Low-code/no-code development

4. Breaking down data silos: Making AI the “brain for business collaboration”
The "information cocoon" of the public platform : ❌ Unable to integrate data from multiple systems (such as finance, legal affairs, and supply chain) ❌ Lack of real-time business linkage capabilities
Ecological integration of locally developed LLM applications : ✅Finance -Legal collaboration case :
For example : Multinational companies can build cross-border investment assistants by developing LLM applications locally :
5. Dify: The core capability of enterprise-level AI development platform
