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. -

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. -
OpenAI
ChatGPT (Web Browser Version)
FREEThe ChatGPT Web Browser Version is an accessible online powerful language model. The chatbot is designed to provide users with a user-friendly interface that facilitates interaction without needing any specialized programming or machine learning knowledge. Users can leverage ChatGPT for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to tutoring in academic subjects, generating creative content, drafting and editing text, providing personalized recommendations, translating languages, and even programming help. Businesses can use it for automating customer service, generating marketing content, and providing personalized user experiences.ChatGPT is powered by GPT-3.5-turbo by default and is free to try. If you are a paying customer and subscribe to ChatGPT Plus, you can change the model to GPT-4 before you start a chat. Currently, the ChatGPT models support several languages, including but not limited to English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian and Dutch. New features for ChatGPT-Plus users have just been announced. These include a web-browsing feature that provides up-to-date information (prior to the update, ChatGPT was limited in what it could answer, as it was only trained on data until 2021). ChatGPT-Plus users can also access third-party plug-ins for web services like Expedia, Kayak, and Instacart. With these plug-ins, users can prompt ChatGPT to perform tasks on specific websites. -

LaunchPad
FREENVIDIA LaunchPad provides free access to enterprise NVIDIA hardware and software through an internet browser. NVIDIA customers can experience the power of AI with end-to-end solutions through guided hands-on labs or use NVIDIA-Certified Systems as a sandbox, but you need to fill out an Application Form and wait for approval. Sample labs include training and deploying a support chatbot, deploying an end-to-end AI workload, configuring and deploying a language model on the hardware accelerator, and deploying a fraud detection model.*FREE via Application Form -
Meta AI
Llama
FREEMeta has created Llama (Large Language Model Meta AI), its 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. Meta is making Llama available at several sizes (7B, 13B, 33B, and 65B parameters) and they also share a Llama model card that details how we built the model in keeping with our approach to responsible AI practices. -

Llama 2
FREEMeta has released Llama 2. It has an open license, which allows commercial use for businesses. Llama 2 will be available for use in the Hugging Face Transformers library from today (you will need to sign Meta’s Llama 2 Community License Agreement – https://ai.meta.com/resources/models-and-libraries/llama-downloads/, via MSFT Azure cloud computing service, and through Amazon SageMaker JumpStart).Llama 2 is an auto-regressive language model that uses an optimized transformer architecture. Llama 2 is intended for commercial and research use in English. It comes in a range of parameter sizes—7 billion, 13 billion, and 70 billion—as well as pre-trained and fine-tuned variations. According to Meta, the tuned versions use supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) to align to human preferences for helpfulness and safety. Llama 2 was pre-trained on 2 trillion tokens of data from publicly available sources. The tuned models are intended for assistant-like chat, whereas pre-trained models can be adapted for a variety of natural language generation tasks.Link to the live demo of Llama2 70B Chatbot -https://huggingface.co/spaces/ysharma/Explore_llamav2_with_TGI -
NVIDIA
NeMo
FREENVIDIA NeMo, part of the NVIDIA AI platform, is an end-to-end, cloud-native enterprise framework to help build, customize, and deploy generative AI models. NeMo makes generative AI model development easy, cost-effective and fast for enterprises. NeMo has separate collections for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Text-to-Speech (TTS) models. Each collection consists of prebuilt modules that include everything needed to train on your data. NeMo framework supports both language and image generative AI models. Currently, the workflow for language is in open beta, and the workflow for images is in early access. You must be a member of the NVIDIA Developer Program and logged in with your organization’s email address to access it. It is licensed under the Apache License 2.0, which is a permissive open source license that allows for commercial use. -
StableLM
StableLM-Base-Alpha -7B
FREEStability AI released a new open-source language model, StableLM. The Alpha version of the model is available in 3 billion and 7 billion parameters. StableLM is trained on a new experimental dataset built on The Pile, but three times larger with 1.5 trillion tokens of content. The richness of this dataset gives StableLM surprisingly high performance in conversational and coding tasks, despite its small size. The models are now available on GitHub and on Hugging Face, and developers can freely inspect, use, and adapt our StableLM base models for commercial or research purposes subject to the terms of the CC BY-SA-4.0 license.

Vicuna-13B
FREEVicuna-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.
