Alpaca vs. OPT

LLM Comparison


Alpaca

Alpaca

Overview

Alpaca is an instruction-finetuned LLM based off of LLaMA.


The first of many instruct-finetuned versions of LLaMA, Alpaca is an instruction-following model introduced by Stanford researchers. Impressively, with only $600 of compute spend, the researchers demonstrated that on qualitative benchmarks Alpaca performed similarly to OpenAI's text-davinci-003, a significantly larger model.

OPT

OPT

Overview

Open Pre-trained Transformer Language Models (OPT) is part of the family of open source models designed to replicate GPT-3, with similar decoder-only architecture. It has since been superseded by models such as LLaMA, GPT-J, and Pythia.
