LLaMA vs. RedPajama-INCITE

LLM Comparison


LLaMA

LLaMA

Overview

LLaMA was previously Meta AI's most performant LLM available for researchers and noncommercial use cases. It has since been succeeded by Llama 2.


The model that launched a frenzy in open-source instruct-finetuned models, LLaMA is Meta AI's more parameter-efficient, open 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.

RedPajama-INCITE

RedPajama-INCITE

Overview

RedPajama-INCITE is the first family of models trained on the RedPajama base dataset. The goal of the RedPajama-INCITE models is to replicate the LLaMA recipe but make the model fully open source under the Apache license. As of the initial release, the 3B parameter model is best-in-class, with the 7B parameter model in progress. Update as of June 6, 2023: the 7B parameter model was made available, outperforming other models of the same size.
