Takeaways
Meta's 'Herd of LLMs' research paper discusses the models and their capabilities
The pre-training and post-training processes are crucial for model development
Model architecture, tokenization, and data filtering are important considerations
Open sourcing research and models allows for collaboration and innovation LAMA 3.1 goes through a pre-training stage where it learns from a large corpus of text and a fine-tuning stage where it is trained on specific tasks.
The training process involves creating checkpoints to save model parameters and comparing changes made at different checkpoints.
The compute used for training LAMA 3.1 includes 16,000 H100 GPUs and Meta's Grand Tena and Tyons AI servers.
LAMA 3.1 utilizes Meta's server racks, GPUs from Nvidia, and a job scheduler made by Meta.
The file system used by LAMA 3.1 is the tectonic file distribution system, which has a throughput of 2-7 terabytes per second.
Challenges in training LAMA 3.1 include lack of prompts for complex math problems, lack of ground truth for thought, and training inference disparity.
Safety measures are crucial for open-source models like LAMA 3.1, and uplift testing and red teaming are conducted to identify vulnerabilities.
Insecure code generation, prompt injection, and phishing attacks are some of the concerns addressed in the safety measures of LAMA 3.1.
LAMA 3.1 also focuses on handling long context inputs and utilizes synthetic generation, question answering, summarization, and code reasoning.
Understanding how LAMA 3.1 is trained can help users effectively utilize the model for specific tasks.
Sound Bites
"What Meta is doing with open sourcing their research and their model is huge."
"Meta's foundational model is second to third to first in most benchmarks."
"The model architecture mirrors the Llama2 architecture, utilizing a dense transformer architecture."
"They do this anewing, anewing, and then they would save the checkpoint and they would save it like, okay, so they did their training."
"They were talking about the compute budgets. And so they were saying these things called flaps. And so it's 10 to the 18 and then 10 to the 20 times six and flop is a floating point operation per second, which comes down to six tillian, which is 21 zeros."
"They have the server racks. They open sourced and designed basically themselves like a long time ago."
