> OpenAI's ChatGPT hit 100 million MAUs in January, and has gone down since. poor reading of the numbers. one guy at a bank pulled up similarweb and guesstimated 100m registered users and it went viral. whisper numbers were closer to 50m. but in the 6 months since they have certainly crossed 100m and probably are north of 500m, and only recently dipped.
How do you find Whisper numbers, it’s open source yea?

I think more Apple. It's not like Google or Microsoft would want to use LLaMA when they have fully capable models themselves. I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon does as well. Apple is the big laggard in terms of big tech and complex neural network models.
Apple would absolutely not want to use a competitors, or any other, public LLM. They want to own the whole stack, and will want to have their own secret source as part of it. It's not like they don't have the capital to invest in training...

#134Another non-open source license. Getting better but don't let anyone tell you this is open source. http://marble.onl/posts/software-licenses-masquerading-as-op...
Meta's business model is "the users are not the customer, they are data sources and things to manipulate," it's especially worrying.
I don't understand the hype behind this. This whole offering is bait

#135Would really want to see some benchmarks against ChatGPT / GPT-4. The improvements in the given benchmarks for the larger models (Llama v1 65B and Llama v2 70B) are not huge, but hard to know if still make a difference for many common use cases.
"In addition to open-source models, we also compare Llama 2 70B results to closed-source models. As shown in Table 4, Llama 2 70B is close to GPT-3.5 (OpenAI, 2023) on MMLU and GSM8K, but there is a significant gap on coding benchmarks. Llama 2 70B results are on par or better than PaLM (540B) (Chowdhery et al., 2022) on almost all benchmarks. There is still a large gap in performance between Llama 2 70B and GPT-4 an…

#136Making advanced LLMs and releasing them for free like this is wonderful for the world. It saves a huge number of folks (companies, universities & individuals) vast amount of money and engineering time. It will enable many teams to do research and make products that they otherwise wouldn't be able to. It is interesting to ponder to what extent this is just a strategic move by Meta to make more money in the end, but wh…
Re: Llama 2
#137They don't benchmark against the OpenAI models at all for some reason. In my experience so far even GPT-3.5 was so much better than any OSS models I tried. Meta must be missing having a cloud business at this point. AI would have fit perfectly with that. Since they ran Whatsapp for so many years kinda without interfering too much, they could have also tried a somewhat independent cloud unit.

Does everyone also think OpenAI is open source? Or a non-profit? Does putting open in the name just mean you're going to love it?

“Wonderful for the world” = “I can exploit this to make money”
But also, nothing wrong with making money by building valuable new things.
