    extrusion
    [ik-stroo-zhuhn] / ɪkˈstru ʒən /
    noun
    plural extrusions

    1. the act of extruding or the state of being extruded.
    2. something that is extruded.

    From context, I would expect the latter definition to be what they meant.

    Oh, you don’t know what “extruded” means either? Don’t worry, I got you.

    extrude
    / ɪkˈstruːd /
    verb

    1. (tr) to squeeze or force out

    2. (tr) to produce (moulded sections of plastic, metal, etc) by ejection under pressure through a suitably shaped nozzle or die

    3. (tr) to chop up or pulverize (an item of food) and re-form it to look like a whole

    4. a less common word for protrude

    “LLM extrusion” most likely refers to definition 1 or 3, or some synthesis of the two.

    Hope that helps!
