UAE's Falcon 40B, the world's top ranked open-source AI model from the Technology Innovation Institute (TII) has waived royalties on its use for commercial and research purposes. #TII #LLM #FalconLLM #Tech #Innovation #AI #AbuDhabi #UAE

Less than a week ago a new king of publicly available Large Language Models (LLMs) was announced. Falcon-40B was released on Hugging Face hub, and it shot all the way to the top of the leaderboards on various NLP tasks. 1/4

Congratulations to the co-authors and especially to Mohammed Seddik who was leading this research!

In NeurIPS rebuttal rules: Please do not post messages that urge reviewers to respond Why is it introduced? For me it was an extremely useful tool for last major conferences. We achieved the reviewer response rate much higher than usual just by sending the reminders #NeurIPS

Petals supports Falcon 180B-Chat now, come try it! A 180B model runs at ~2.3 tokens/sec over the Internet — even a year ago I thought this would be hard to achieve. A few simple optimizations for Falcon recently gave us a ~40% speedup, so it can probably get even faster 🚀

📢Help us spread the word: We are organizing a workshop on **Optimal Transport in Berlin 2024**, connecting the theoretical and applied research, with themes in Dynamics, OPT, ML. We’ve got a list of excellent speakers! ✨Super excited! Website: sites.google.com/view/ot-berlin…

I am on the job market for a Tenure Track Assistant Professor position! I work on optimization (stochastic optimization, distributed optimization, min-max problems/variational inequalities). If you are aware of some great options, please DM me. My website: eduardgorbunov.github.io

PhD students deserve better financial conditions.

Take a look on our new paper on Conformal Prediction

MBZUAI researcher Artem Shelmanov, along with faculty members Preslav Nakov, Maxim Panov, and colleagues from MBZUAI and other top institutions, have introduced a new approach to tackling hallucinations in large language models. Their method, using uncertainty quantification,

Our paper has been accepted to 𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐋! Benchmarking Uncertainty Quantification Methods for Large Language Models arxiv.org/pdf/2406.15627 It introduces LM-Polygraph - a benchmark for uncertainty quantification and hallucination detection in LLMs. github.com/IINemo/lm-poly…

As the 2024 International Conference on Data Mining (#ICDM) kicked off in Abu Dhabi, Eric Xing, #MBZUAI's President and University Professor, delivered the opening remarks to the delegates. At this year’s conference, university faculty Fakhri Karray serves as honorary chair,
