  So “OpenAI” isn't open, but Meta's Llama 2...is.  —  Weird world we live in these days.

• @ylecun Yann LeCun on x

  This is huge: Llama-v2 is open source, with a license that authorizes commercial use! This is going to change the landscape of the LLM market. Llama-v2 is available on Microsoft Azure and will be available on AWS, Hugging Face and other providers Pretrained and fine-tuned...

  Meta's new A.I. is an open-source breakthrough with fine print to freeze out competitors https://fortune.com/... [image]

• @minimaxir Max Woolf on x

  The new Llama 2 model has an additional licensing requirement which prevents use if you have >700M MAUs, which is an oddly high number. OpenAI's ChatGPT hit 100 million MAUs in January, and has gone down since. It's essentially a “Amazon and Google don't use this k thx.” [image]

• @giffmana Lucas Beyer on x

  Ah yes, the well known “except you, FAANG” clause that's so common in *open source* licenses like GPL, MIT, BSD, Apache2, ... Here I go again, this can't be for real lol [image]

• @drjimfan @drjimfan on x

  The long-awaited sequel, Llama-2 is announced today! It's the best OSS model we have now. ▸ Tiers: 7B, 13B, 70B. Context: 4K ▸ 70B is close to GPT-3.5 on reasoning tasks, but there is a significant gap on coding benchmarks. It's on par or better than PaLM-540B on most benchmarks,…

• @can @can on x

  what so LLaMa is now just Llama?

• @natolambert Nathan Lambert on x

  people saying llama v2 is overrated because it's not as good at specific tasks forgot that open models are going to improve at a way faster rate because of community engagement.

  In less than two weeks we will have an open-source model running locally that will be better than ChatGPT 3.5 This is pretty crazy.

  ✨NEW LAUNCH! LLaMA2 chat API & open-source playground💫: We're releasing tools that make it easy to test @meta's latest LLM & add it to your own app with @replicatehq. Playground: https://llama2.ai/ Live chat API here: https://replicate.com/... Repos & instructions below:

• @rihardjarc Rihard Jarc on x

  The companies that stand to benefit most from Generative AI are not the ones that own the LLM models. The models are already becoming a commodity (today's $META LLaMa OS release adds to the fire). The real value is in the companies that have distribution for Generative AI use...

• @erikvoorhees Erik Voorhees on x

  So many are focused on “slowing down” or “regulating” AI. Far more important for it to simply be open source at the base layers. Good job @Meta 👏

• @amasad Amjad Masad on x

  It's so baffling why all big OSS models do not train on enough code. Not only does it make coding performance better (obviously) — it makes all performance better to train on lots of code (perhaps a 70B can take all code in the world).

• @perrymetzger Perry E. Metzger on x

  Meta is fully open sourcing Llama 2! This is totally awesome! More open source models means better research, better understanding, and amazing long term benefits to society. [image]

  A big difference between Llama 1 and Llama 2: Meta is no longer saying what training data it used https://www.businessinsider.com/ ... via @businessinsider

• @rajko_rad Rajko Radovanović on x

  0/9🚨We worked with @replicatehq to make @MetaAI's LLaMa-v2 immediately available to play with and embed in your apps🎁 We also took LLaMa-v2 for a spin, found examples where 13B outperforms chatGPT 3.5 (175B), and not! More context, links and examples below 👇🧵

• @replicatehq @replicatehq on x

  LLaMA v2 was just announced. And it's live on Replicate. LLaMA v2 is the latest open source model from Meta. v2 was trained on more data than v1 (~2 trillion tokens) and supports context windows up to 4k tokens. https://replicate.com/... We think it's on par with GPT-3.5 ⬇️

• @timsweeneyepic Tim Sweeney on x

  A huge step forward for AI and for open source by Meta! We can see Team Open forming around AI in real-time thanks to the work of university research groups, to Stability AI, and now to Meta. Ironically, OpenAI is closed.

• @schrep Mike Schroepfer on x

  This is indeed huge news in the world of AI! So excited to see this out in the world!

  LLaMA 2 uses the same embedding logic as LLaMA 1, which means all the context length extension work will port right over ✌️

  You'll soon see lots of “Llama just dethroned ChatGPT” or “OpenAI is so done” posts on Twitter. Before your timeline gets flooded, I'll share my notes: ▸ Llama-2 likely costs $20M+ to train. Meta has done an incredible service to the community by releasing the model with a commer…

• @karpathy Andrej Karpathy on x

  Huge day indeed for AI and LLMs, congrats to Meta 👏 This is now the most capable LLM available directly as weights to anyone from researchers to companies. The models look quite strong, e.g. Table 4 in the paper: MMLU is good to look at, the 70B model is just below GPT-3.5. But H…

• @sharifshameem Sharif Shameem on x

  Interesting how LLAMA 2 was pretrained for 2T tokens yet somehow even the 7B model size isn't fully saturated yet? if you showed someone these loss curves with no labels, they'd say “keep training!” [image]

• @immad @immad on x

  Meta launches open source LLM (Llama 2). They also have a ChatGPT style interface so you can play with it yourself: https://www.llama2.ai/ Interesting strategy from Meta/FB to go “scorched earth” on LLMs. Do you think it will work?

• @krishnanrohit Rohit on x

  The licensing hit that Llama 2 creates might stop big tech from buying a startup built on Llama 2, because of the user count and restrictions on using Llama outputs to train other LLMs.

• @simonw Simon Willison on x

  The thing I most wanted to see someone do with Llama 2 is figure out the prompts needed for a robust implementation of the reAct pattern, so it can be used as an alternative to OpenAI Functions My notes on that from a few months ago: https://til.simonwillison.net/ ...

• @natolambert Nathan Lambert on x

  Excited to share my analysis of the LLAMA2 model. In short, this model and paper are incredibly well done. Meta has stepped up the level for open-source and signaled another path for the future of LLMs. Influencers are now right with “equals chatgpt”. https://www.interconnects.ai…

• @mikeisaac @mikeisaac on x

  open sourcing their AI model is a big deal. it gives developers the power to do whatever they want with the code — for good or ill — and is essentially the opposite approach Open AI and Google are taking Zuckerberg maintains a philosophy that open = better on AI [image]

• @mreflow Matt Wolfe on x

  So Microsoft is partnered with OpenAI on their closed-source LLM and they're now partnering with Meta to release an open-source LLM with Llama 2? I love that things are moving towards more open-source. I'm just really confused by where Microsoft is going with all this?

• @bornsteinmatt Matt Bornstein on x

  The release of LLaMA v2 could be a watershed moment for open source LLMs. We got early access, and even 13b is competitive with GPT-3.5 for many tasks (!), especially creative tasks Try it at https://llama2.ai/ and on @replicatehq at https://replicate.com/...!
