OpenLLaMA

OpenLLaMA

Overview

OpenLLaMA is an effort from OpenLM Research to offer a non-gated version of LLaMa that can be used both for research and commercial applications. As of June 2023, the model is still training, with 3B, 7B, and 13B parameter models available.



Initial release: 2023-04-28

Phi

Phi

Overview

Phi is a series of compact language models developed by Microsoft using high-quality synthetic data and curated web content. Phi-3 and Phi-3.5 (2024) significantly raised the bar for small models, with the 3.8B Phi-3 Mini matching much larger open-source models on key benchmarks.


Phi-1 and Phi-2 are 1.3B and 2.7B parameter language models, respectively, developed by Microsoft to demonstrate the ability of smaller language models trained on high-quality data. In April 2024, Phi-3 was released across Mini (3.8B), Small (7B), and Medium (14B) sizes. Phi-3 Mini achieves performance competitive with Llama 3 8B and Mistral 7B at a fraction of the compute, making it ideal for edge and constrained-resource deployments. Phi-3.5 Mini and MoE followed in August 2024 with further improvements.
