Andrej Karpathy, previously Director of AI at Tesla and one of the founding members of OpenAI, extended his congratulations to Meta for releasing Llama 3 and shares some key insights.
Bindu Reddy, an AI influencer, shared her views on why Llama-3 might be doing well on LMSYS leaderboard.
Maxime Labonne highlighted the diminishing gap between closed-source and open-source language models, noting a significant reduction in the timeframe for this convergence, which now takes only 6 to 10 months. He acknowledged the open-source community's reliance on major companies for pre-trained models but emphasizes their increasing skill in maximizing model performance.
Meta's decision to open-source Llama 3 marks a paradigm shift in AI research and development. By embracing an open-source ethos, Meta not only fosters community-driven innovation but also strategically positions itself for long-term growth. Llama 3's arrival injects a surge of innovation and competition into the LLM industry, igniting a race for supremacy among AI giants. With its unparalleled performance, Llama 3 sets a new benchmark for excellence, compelling competitors to up their game.
Llama 3 is gearing up for a significant leap with its upcoming release of models, particularly the colossal 400B-parameter models currently in training. Although these models are still undergoing refinement, the team is optimistic about their trajectory.
Models currently in the pipeline have enhanced capabilities, such as multimodality, multilingual conversation abilities, expanded context windows, and overall stronger performance. These advancements are poised to push the boundaries of what Llama 3 can achieve.
Although specifics about the 400B models remain under wraps, early insights suggest promising progress. As training continues, these models are expected to potentially surpass the benchmarks set by current state-of-the-art models like GPT-4.
With Llama 3's commitment to pushing the boundaries of AI capabilities, the anticipation surrounding the release of these mammoth models continues to grow, hinting at exciting possibilities in the AI landscape.
Since the debut of our Hallucination Index in November, numerous models have emerged in both private and public spheres. In our previous assessment, Llama-2-70b demonstrated strong performance in long-form text generation but fell short in QA with RAG. We're excited to evaluate how Llama 3 stacks up against GPT-4 in our next index update coming soon. Additionally, we're assessing leading models such as Claude 3, Gemini, and Command R+ on long-context RAG. We aim to test models with improved methodologies to bring the right insights to you!
