Even though many people are not aware of it, productive artificial intelligence technologies and applications fed by them will start to occupy a large place in our lives even in the next 5 years. Of course, this requires a solid foundation first.
The competition to form this basis started especially with OpenAI’s release of ChatGPT. Unexpected news came from Meta, which is considered as a competitor to the company, which is highly supported by Microsoft.
Meta and Microsoft announce new open source language model “Llama 2”!
While everyone thought that Meta was a competitor to OpenAI and therefore Microsoft in the field of artificial intelligence, a surprise announcement was shared. Meta and Microsoft officially announced the language model they developed, Llama 2.
Moreover, artificial intelligence will not be open to scientific studies only, unlike the first version of the Llama language model. Llama 2 can be used free of charge for both commercial and research purposes, and can be customized by third parties as it is open source.
Detailed information about the capacity of Llama 2 has not been shared yet. However, it was shared that the language model will be used in technology, academia and even politics. It was also underlined that the language model was developed in a “responsible” way.
LLaMA, the first version of Llama, was announced and made available by Meta on February 24.
Where did this partnership originate from?
In fact, Microsoft and Meta have partnerships in many areas. Chief among these is PyTorch, the world’s most comprehensive artificial intelligence framework built on Azure. But according to the shared announcement, both companies agree on “democratizing” access to AI models.
This led to the partnership of Microsoft and Meta and the publication of an open source language model.
