Due to continued snow showers and road surface temperatures well below 0C, we will be gritting the primary routes twice overnight, at 7pm and again from about 4am. We will continuously grit the arterial main roads through the night.

Open source LLMs have a major limitation. But today, everything changes with the release of a new Foundation LLM Giraffe!🦒 So, what limitation does Giraffe overcome❔ ❗️Open source LLMs have a max context length of 2k tokens, which roughly mean that they can not take inputs longer than 1500 words. ❗️This makes them less useful for creating a Custom LLM based on your knowledge base. ❗️Limited data in each call negatively impacts model performance. How Giraffe solved this problem❔ ❗️@AbacusAI have released two versions of Giraffe with context lengths to 4K and 16K. ❗️Which means now you can feed them with upto 3000 & 12000 words respectively in one go! 🚀 Find all the code & instructions for reproducing or building on the results 👇 github.com/abacusai/Long-Con… The weights (and datasets) are available for download from Huggingface. 4k: huggingface.co/abacusai/Gira… 16k: huggingface.co/abacusai/Gira… The current implementation is based on Llama-v1, the implementation for Llama-v2 with research paper to be released soon! Follow @AbacusAI for all the updates! That's a wrap, if you interested in: - Python 🐍 - ML/MLOps🤖 - Maths for ML 🧮 - CV/NLP 🗣 - LLMs 🧠 Find me → @akshay_pachaar ✔️ Everyday, I share tutorials on above topics! Cheers! 🥂
