Ahead of iOS 18’s debut at WWDC in June, Apple has released a family of open-source large language models. Called OpenELM, Apple describes these as: a family of Open-source Efficient Language Models. In its testing, Apple says that OpenELM offers similar performance to other open language models, but with less training data. more
Apple today released several open source large language models (LLMs) that are designed to run on-device rather than through cloud servers. Called OpenELM (Open-source Efficient Language Models), the LLMs are available on the Hugging Face Hub, a community for sharing AI code. As outlined in a white paper [PDF], there are eight total OpenELM models, four of which were pre-trained using the CoreNet library, and four instruction tuned models. Apple uses a layer-wise scaling strategy that is...
In terms of performance, the OpenLLM results shared by Apple show that the new models perform fairly well, especially the one with 3 billion parameters.
Apple has publicly shared four open-source models boasting of enhanced accuracy for queries, which could help the development of future AI models. A Siri icon superimposed on Apple Park As the tech industry continues to race forward with AI developments, Apple has continued to offer more glimpses into the technology it is working on. In the latest public release, Apple has released a quartet of open-source models. Referred to as Open Source Efficient LLMs, or OpenELMs, the instruct...
Llama 3 is Meta’s latest generation of models that has state-of-the art performance and efficiency for openly available LLMs. Meta AI is available online for free. The small 7B model beats Mistral 7B and Gemma 7B. The 70B beats Claude 3 Sonnet (closed source Anthropic model) and competes against Gemini Pro 1.5 (closed source model
Zuckerberg says new AI model "was still learning" when Meta stopped training.
Just how real is quantum computing? We have an amazing guest on our Weekend Edition who will talk about how she is helping people prepare for IT careers using quantum computing. Meta’s new AI release sparks a debate about open versus closed source AI, major legislation expanding US government surveillance capabilities goes largely unnoticed, big
Meta’s recent unveiling of Llama 3, a new state-of-the-art large language model, signifies a groundbreaking leap forward in the realm of artificial intelligence. This powerful model comes in two distinct versions: an 8 billion parameter model and a more advanced 70 billion parameter variant. Llama 3 is engineered to drastically enhance the performance of AI-driven […]
Facebook parent Meta Platforms unveiled a new set of artificial intelligence systems Thursday that are powering what CEO Mark Zuckerberg calls the most intelligent AI assistant that you can freely use. But as Zuckerberg's crew of amped-up Meta AI agents started venturing into social media this week to engage with real people, their bizarre exchanges exposed the ongoing limitations of even the best generative AI technology. One joined a Facebook moms' group to talk about its gifted child....

London-based model Alexsandrah has a twin, but not in the way you'd expect: Her counterpart is made of pixels instead of flesh and blood. The virtual twin was generated by artificial intelligence and has already appeared as a stand-in for the real-life Alexsandrah in a photo shoot. Alexsandrah, who goes by her first name professionally, in turn receives credit and compensation whenever the AI version of herself gets used - just like a human model. Alexsandrah says she and her alter-ego mirror...
Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) announced today the expansion of its AI assistant, Meta AI, to over a dozen new countries outside the US. This update makes Meta AI available in English in countries like Australia, Canada, South Africa, and Singapore. Here is the full list of the countries where Meta AI is being released: Meta AI has been improved with […]
