LLM Comparison


Gemma 2

Gemma 2

Overview

Gemma 2 succeeds the Gemma family of lightweight open models from Google built using the same processes used for the the larger Gemini models.


Gemma 2 is the successor to the Gemma family of open models, including larer models (9B and 27B parameters) with outsized performance across benchmarks. Using a combination of techniques such as training on twice as much data, knowledge distillation, and architectural improvements such as sliding window attention, logit soft-capping, and model merging, Gemma 2 outperforms models of similar size (such as Llama 3), with the 27B parameter model being competitive with models more than twice its size (such as Llama 70B).

Vicuna

Vicuna

Overview

Released alongside Koala, Vicuna is one of many descendants of the Meta LLaMA model trained on dialogue data collected from the ShareGPT website. According to the authors, Vicuna achieves more than 90% of ChatGPT's quality in user preference tests, while vastly outperforming Alpaca. As of May 2023, Vicuna seems to be the heir apparent of the instruct-finetuned LLaMA model family, though it is also restricted from commercial use.
