Apple Intelligence introduces a small (~3B parameters) on-device model and a larger server model running on Apple Silicon with Private Cloud Compute, aiming to surpass Google Gemma, Mistral Mixtral, Microsoft Phi, and Mosaic DBRX. The on-device model features a novel lossless quantization strategy using mixed 2-bit and 4-bit LoRA adapters averaging 3.5 bits-per-weight, enabling dynamic adapter hot-swapping and efficient memory management. Apple credits the Talaria tool for optimizing quantization and model latency, achieving about 0.6 ms time-to-first-token latency and 30 tokens per second generation rate on iPhone 15 Pro. Apple focuses on an "adapter for everything" strategy with initial deployment on SiriKit and App Intents. Performance benchmarks rely on human graders, emphasizing consumer-level adequacy over academic dominance. The Apple ML blog also mentions an Xcode code-focused model and a diffusion model for Genmoji.
FineWeb: 15T Tokens, 12 years of CommonCrawl (deduped and filtered, you're welcome)

2024 has seen a significant increase in dataset sizes for training large language models, with Redpajama 2 offering up to 30T tokens, DBRX at 12T tokens, Reka Core/Flash/Edge with 5T tokens, and Llama 3 trained on 15T tokens. Huggingface released an open dataset containing 15T tokens from 12 years of filtered CommonCrawl data, enabling training of models like Llama 3 if compute resources are available. On Reddit, WizardLM-2-8x22b outperformed other open LLMs including Llama-3-70b-instruct in reasoning and math benchmarks. Claude Opus demonstrated strong zero-shot code error spotting, surpassing Llama 3. Benchmarks revealed limitations in the LMSYS chatbot leaderboard due to instruction-tuned models gaming the system, and a new RAG benchmark showed Llama 3 70B underperforming compared to GPT-4, while Mistral 8x7B remained strong. Efficient quantized versions of Llama 3 models are available on Huggingface, with users reporting token generation limits around 9600 tokens on a 3090 GPU. Safety concerns include a UK sex offender banned from AI tool usage and GPT-4 demonstrating an 87% success rate exploiting real vulnerabilities, raising security concerns.
