Fireworks AI recently launched Firefunction-v2, an open-source function-calling model aiming to deliver superior performance in real-world applications. The model integrates with multi-turn conversations, instruction following, and parallel function calling, providing a powerful and effective solution comparable to more advanced models such as GPT-4o, but with increased speed, better functionality, and lower costs. Firefunction-v2's robustness and…
Contrary to popular belief, holograms aren't just a part of high-tech galleries or science museums. In fact, creating a hologram, a 3D image produced through a photographic technique named holography, can be an interesting DIY project. All you need are some readily available and affordable materials such as film plates, a laser, safety goggles, a…
Generative models aim to replicate the patterns in the data they are trained on, often striving to replicate human actions and results. These models strive to match human proficiency in various tasks, but there is a debate over whether these models can surpass their human trainers. A new study from researchers at Harvard University, UC…
Evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs) is a difficult task, as real-world problems are quite complex and ever-changing. Conventional benchmarks often fail to provide a holistic picture of LLMs' performance. Here are some key metrics recently highlighted in a LinkedIn post:
1. MixEval: Designed to ensure balance between user queries and effective grading, MixEval combines real-world user…
