The most recent (as of May 2023) effort from EleutherAI, Pythia is a set of LLMs trained on The Pile. While it appears to outperform OPT and GPTNeo, its performance against GPT-J is unclear. Versions of Pythia have also been instruct-tuned by the team at Together.
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.
