GPTNeo vs. LLaMA

LLM Comparison

GPTNeo

Overview

GPTNeo is a model released by EleutherAI to try and provide an open source model with capabilities similar to OpenAI's GPT-3 model. One of the earliest such models, GPTNeo was trained on The Pile, Eleuther's corpus of web text.

Initial release: 2021-03-21

LLaMA

Overview

The model that launched a frenzy in open-source instruct-finetuned models, LLaMA is Meta AI's more parameter-efficient, open-source alternative to large commercial LLMs. Despite being smaller than many commercial models, LLaMA outperformed the gold standard GPT-3 on many benchmarks, with the primary drawback being that its access remains gated to researchers with restrictions on commercial use.

Initial release: 2023-02-24
