Orca

Orca

Overview

Orca is a descendant of LLaMA developed by Microsoft with finetuning on explanation traces obtained from GPT-4.


Orca-13B is a LLM developed by Microsoft. It is based on LLaMA with finetuning on complex explanation traces obtained from GPT-4. By using rich signals, Orca surpasses the performance of models such as Vicuna-13B on complex tasks. However, given its model backbone and the data used for its finetuning, Orca is under noncommercial use.
