Meta have released Llama 2, their commercially-usable successor to the opensource Llama language model that spawned Alpaca, Vicuna, Orca and so many other models. I read the full 76 page technical paper, the Responsible Use Guide, each of the release pages, the terms and conditions and have also run many of my own experiments on HuggingFace.
This video covers the most noteworthy bits, including:
- The benchmark results vs other open-source models and GPT 3.5 and GPT 4.
- The decision to release in the face of the US Senate
- Why Zuckerberg opensourced Llama 2, including the Mistral AI Factor
- The opensource signatory list
- How Orca and Phi-1 compare
- Why Llama 2 might soon be everywhere
