  • Stanford University

    Alpaca

    FREE
    Stanford 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.

    BLOOM

    FREE
    BigScience 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

    FREE
    Researchers 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.
  • EleutherAI

    GPT-J

    FREE
    EleutherAI is a leading non-profit research institute focused on large-scale artificial intelligence research. EleutherAI has trained and released several LLMs and the codebases used to train them. GPT-J can be used for code generation, making a chat bot, story writing, language translation and searching. GPT-J learns an inner representation of the English language that can be used to extract features useful for downstream tasks. The model is best at what it was pretrained for, which is generating text from a prompt. EleutherAI has a web page where you can test to see how the GPT-J works, or you can run GPT-J on google colab, or use the Hugging Face Transformers library.
  • EleutherAI

    GPT-NeoX-20B

    FREE
    EleutherAI has trained and released several LLMs and the codebases used to train them. EleutherAI is a leading non-profit research institute focused on large-scale artificial intelligence research. GPT-NeoX-20B is a 20 billion parameter autoregressive language model trained on the Pile using the GPT-NeoX library. Its architecture intentionally resembles that of GPT-3, and is almost identical to that of GPT-J- 6B. Its training dataset contains a multitude of English-language texts, reflecting the general-purpose nature of this model. It is a transformer-based language model and is English-language only, and thus cannot be used for translation or generating text in other languages. It is freely and openly available to the public through a permissive license.

  • Microsoft

    VALL-E

    OTHER
    VALL-E is a LLM for text to speech synthesis (TTS) developed by Microsoft (technically it is a neural codec language model). Its creators state that VALL-E could be used for high-quality text-to-speech applications, speech editing where a recording of a person could be edited and changed from a text transcript (making them say something they originally didn’t), and audio content creation when combined with other generative AI models. Studies indicate that VALL-E notably surpasses the leading zero-shot TTS system regarding speech authenticity and resemblance to the speaker. Furthermore, it has been observed that VALL-E is capable of retaining the emotional expression and ambient acoustics of the speaker within the synthesized output. Unfortunately, VALL-E is not available for any form of public consumption at this time. At the time of writing, VALL-E is a research project, and there is no customer onboarding queue or waitlist (but you can apply to be part of the first testers group).

    Vicuna-13B

    FREE

    Vicuna-13B is an open-source chatbot developed by a team of researchers from UC Berkeley, CMU, Stanford, MBZUAI, and UC San Diego. The chatbot was trained by fine-tuning LLaMA on user-shared conversations collected from ShareGPT. There is a 13B and 7B parameter models that are available on Hugging Face.

    Vicuna-13B achieves more than 90% quality of OpenAI ChatGPT and Google Bard while outperforming other models like LLaMA and Stanford Alpaca in more than 90% of cases. The code and weights and an online demo are publicly available for non-commercial use. Here is a link to learn more about how it compares to other models – https://lmsys.org/blog/2023-03-30-vicuna/.

    To use this model, you need to install LLaMA weights first and convert them into Hugging Face weights, and the cost of training Vicuna-13B is around $300.
