AI2 is gaining attention in 2024 with its new OLMo models, including 1B and 7B sizes and a 65B model forthcoming, emphasizing open and reproducible research akin to Pythia. The Miqu-70B model, especially the Mistral Medium variant, is praised for self-correction and speed optimizations. Discussions in TheBloke Discord covered programming language preferences, VRAM constraints for large models, and fine-tuning experiments with Distilbert-base-uncased. The Mistral Discord highlighted challenges in the GPU shortage affecting semiconductor production involving TSMC, ASML, and Zeiss, debates on open-source versus proprietary models, and fine-tuning techniques including LoRA for low-resource languages. Community insights also touched on embedding chunking strategies and JSON output improvements.
12/22/2023: Anyscale's Benchmark Criticisms

Anyscale launched their LLMPerf leaderboard to benchmark large language model inference performance, but it faced criticism for lacking detailed metrics like cost per token and throughput, and for comparing public LLM endpoints without accounting for batching and load. In OpenAI Discord discussions, users reported issues with Bard and preferred Microsoft Copilot for storytelling, noting fewer hallucinations. There was debate on the value of upgrading from GPT-3.5 to GPT-4, with many finding paid AI models worthwhile for coding productivity. Bugs and performance issues with OpenAI APIs were also highlighted, including slow responses and message limits. Future AI developments like GPT-6 and concerns about OpenAI's transparency and profitability were discussed. Prompt engineering for image generation was another active topic, emphasizing clear positive prompts and the desire for negative prompts.
