RoBERTa

BERT is a large language model and a method of pre-training language representations. Pre-training refers to how BERT is first trained on a large source of text, such as Wikipedia. You can then apply the training results to other Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks, such as question answering and sentiment analysis. With BERT and AI Platform Training, you can train a variety of NLP models in about 30 minutes.

Llama (Large Language Model Meta AI) is a state-of-the-art foundational large language model designed to help researchers advance their work in this subfield of AI. Smaller, more performant models such as Llama enable others in the research community who don’t have access to large amounts of infrastructure to study these models, further democratizing access in this important, fast-changing field. Training smaller foundation models like Llama is desirable in the large language model space because it requires far less computing power and resources to test new approaches, validate others’ work, and explore new use cases. Foundation models train on a large set of unlabeled data, which makes them ideal for fine-tuning for a variety of tasks. We are making Llama available at several sizes (7B, 13B, 33B, and 65B parameters) and also sharing a Llama model card that details how we built the model in keeping with our approach to Responsible AI practices.
