Llama 3 : Meta
Meta introduced its most capable Large Language Model (LLM), the Meta Llama 3.
- Llama 3 or Large Language Model Meta AI is a family of LLMs introduced by Meta AI in February 2023.
- It is claimed to be the most sophisticated model with significant progress in terms of performance and AI capabilities.
- It is based on the Llama 2 architecture which has been released in two sizes, 8B and 70B parameters.
- Both sizes come with a base model and an instruction-tuned version that has been designed to augment performance in specific tasks.
- The instruction-tuned version is meant for powering AI chatbots that are meant to hold conversations with users.
- It supports context lengths of 8,000 tokens.
- This allows for more interactions, and complex input handling compared to Llama 2 or 1.
- It can be used on Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and the web.
- It is readily available for developers as Meta has integrated the LLM into the Hugging Face ecosystem.
- At present, Meta AI is available in English across the US on WhatsApp.
