This paper introduces ChemLLM, a large language model (LLM) specifically designed for chemistry applications. The authors address two main challenges: structured chemical databases that limit dialogue coherence and the absence of an objective benchmark for evaluating LLMs on various chemistry tasks. They propose a comprehensive framework consisting of ChemLLM, ChemData, and ChemBench to overcome these limitations. ChemLLM is trained using structured chemical knowledge and achieves comparable results to GPT-4 on core chemical tasks. The authors demonstrate competitive performance with similar-sized LLMs in general scenarios. This work paves the way for exploration in chemical studies and sets a new standard for developing LLMs in scientific fields.

Chemists are getting help from big language models! These computers can talk like humans, but they need special training to understand chemistry. The problem is that most chemistry knowledge is stored in structured databases, which makes it hard for the model to have a conversation about chemistry. Another issue is that there isn’t a fair way to test how well these models do on different chemistry tasks. This paper introduces ChemLLM, a language model just for chemistry. It comes with special training data and a benchmark to measure its performance. The results are promising, and this could be the start of something big in chemical research.
