In view of businesses hurrying to ride the artificial intelligence wave, multinational tech firm Meta has announced the release of a new large language model for academics.

Announced by Meta’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg, he said that his company is releasing a new state-of-the-art AI large language model called LLaMA designed to help researchers advance their work.

“LLMs have shown a lot of promise in generating text, having conversations, summarizing written material, and more complicated tasks like solving math theorems or predicting protein structures. Meta is committed to this open model of research and we’ll make our new model available to the AI research community,” explained Zuckerberg.

Unlike recent AI systems that have gained popularity, this one is a research tool that Meta hopes will help others find solutions to some of the issues that AI language models face.

Meta’s official page explained that the language model, LLaMA, is a collection of foundation language models ranging from 7B to 65B parameters.

“We train our models on trillions of tokens and show that it is possible to train state-of-the-art models using publicly available datasets exclusively, without resorting to proprietary and inaccessible datasets. In particular, LLaMA-13B outperforms GPT-3 (175B) on most benchmarks, and LLaMA-65B is competitive with the best models, Chinchilla70B and PaLM-540B. We release all our models to the research community, » explained the tech giant.
