LLMind: Orchestrating AI and IoT with LLMs for Complex Task Execution

In this paper, we introduce LLMind, an AI framework that utilizes large language models (LLMs) as a central orchestrator. The framework integrates LLMs with domain-specific AI modules, enabling IoT devices to collaborate effectively in executing complex tasks. The LLM engages in natural conversations with human users via a user-friendly social media platform to come up with a plan to execute complex tasks. In particular, the execution of a complex task, which may involve the collaborations of multiple domain-specific AI modules and IoT devices, is realized through a control script. The LLM generates the control script using a Language-Code transformation approach based on finite-state machines (FSMs). The framework also incorporates semantic analysis and response optimization techniques to enhance speed and effectiveness. Ultimately, this framework is designed not only to innovate IoT device control and enrich user experiences but also to foster an intelligent and integrated IoT device ecosystem that evolves and becomes more sophisticated through continuing user and machine interactions.
