Ada (fine tuning) GPT-3
$0.0016When fine-tuning a GPT model like Ada, you are fine-tuning the GPT-3 base model (not the instruction-oriented variant of GPT-3). Fine-tuning involves taking the pre-trained base model and further training it on your specific dataset or task to enhance its performance. Fine-tuning allows OpenAI API customers to leverage the power of pre-trained GPT-3 language models, such as Ada, while tailoring them to their specific needs (the fine-tuning process allows a model to specialize in a specific task or context, making it more efficient and effective for a particular use case, which can help to reduce costs and latency for high-volume tasks). You are also able to continue fine-tuning a fine-tuned model to add additional data without having to start from scratch.As the smallest GPT-3 model, Ada is less computationally intensive and quicker, making it ideal for tasks that don’t demand complex language understanding or generation. Note: There are two fine-tuning costs to be aware of, a one-time training cost and a pay-as-you-go usage cost. -

Ada Instruct model
$0.004Open AI’s Ada is usually the fastest and lowest cost Instruct model. InstructGPT models are sibling models to ChatGPT. They are built on GPT-3 models but made to be safer, more helpful, and more aligned to users’ needs using a technique called reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF). Instruct models are meant to generate text with a clear instruction, and they are not optimized for conversational chat. Instruct models are optimized to follow single-turn instructions (e.g., specifically designed to follow instructions provided in a prompt). Developers can use Instruct models for extracting knowledge, generating text, performing NLP tasks, automating tasks involving natural language, and translating languages. The Instruct models also make up facts less often than GPT-3 base models and show slight decreases in toxic output generation. Access is available through a request to OpenAI’s API. -
Stanford University
Alpaca
FREEStanford University released an instruction-following language model called Alpaca, which was fine-tuned from Meta’s LLaMA 7B model. The Alpaca model was trained on 52K instruction-following demonstrations generated in the style of self-instruct using text-davinci-003. Alpaca aims to help the academic community engage with the models by providing an open source model that rivals OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 (text-davinci-003) models. To this end, Alpaca has been kept small and cheap (fine-tuning Alpaca took 3 hours on 8x A100s which is less than $100 of cost) to reproduce. All training data and techniques have been released. The Alpaca license explicitly prohibits commercial use, and the model can only be used for research/personal projects, and users need to follow LLaMA’s license agreement. -

Babbage (fine tuning) GPT-3
$0.0024When fine-tuning a GPT model like Babbage, you are fine-tuning the GPT-3 base model (not the instruction-oriented variant of GPT-3).

You are also able to continue fine-tuning a fine-tuned model to add additional data without having to start from scratch.Babbage is a medium-sized GPT-3 model. It offers a balance between processing power and computational requirements. It is more capable than Ada but less so than Curie or Davinci. Note: There are two fine-tuning costs to be aware of, a one-time training cost and a pay-as-you-go usage cost. -

Babbage Instruct model
$0.0005Open AI’s Babbage Instruct model can understand and generate natural language. Babbage is capable of straightforward tasks, is very fast, and is comparatively lower priced than some other Instruct models. InstructGPT models are sibling models to ChatGPT.

BigScience
BLOOM
FREEBigScience Large Open-science Open-access Multilingual Language Model (BLOOM) is a transformer-based LLM. Over 1,000 AI researchers created it to provide a free large language model for everyone who wants to try and it is a multilingual LLM. BLOOM is an autoregressive Large Language Model (LLM), trained to continue text from a prompt on vast amounts of text data using industrial-scale computational resources. It can output coherent text in 46 languages and 13 programming languages. It is free, and everybody who wants to can try it out. To interact with the API, you’ll need to request a token. This is done with a post request to the server. Tokens are only valid for two weeks. After which, a new one must be generated. Trained on around 176B parameters, it is considered an alternative to OpenAI models. There is a downloadable model, and a hosted API is available. -
ChatGLM
ChatGLM-6B
FREEResearchers at the Tsinghua University in China have worked on developing the ChatGLM series of models that have comparable performance to other models such as GPT-3 and BLOOM. ChatGLM-6B is an open bilingual language model (trained on Chinese and English). It is based on General Language Model (GLM) framework, with 6.2B parameters. With the quantization technique, users can deploy locally on consumer-grade graphics cards (only 6GB of GPU memory is required at the INT4 quantization level). The following models are available: ChatGLM-130B (an open source LLM), ChatGLM-100B (not open source but available through invite-only access), and ChatGLM-6 (a lightweight open source alternative). ChatGLM LLMs are available with a Apache-2.0 license that allows commercial use. We have included the link to the Hugging Face page where you can try the ChatGLM-6B Chatbot for free. -
