The Latest in Open-Source AI: Stability AI's Language Models and LLM.

Stability AI has released StableLM, a suite of text-generating AI models that can generate both code and text and are intended to compete with systems like OpenAI's GPT-4. The models were trained on a dataset called The Pile, and Stability AI claims it created a custom training set that expands the size of the standard Pile by 3x. The StableLM models are available in "alpha" on GitHub and Hugging Spaces, and the company argues that open-sourcing is the right approach to promote transparency and foster trust.
