Talk: 'OLMo: Findings of Training an Open LM' from Hanna Hajirshizi at AI2 from OSGAI.

Extremely interesting overview of the 4 parts (Data, Training, Adaptation, Eval) of the OLMo open LLM project. Rare insight into how these processes work at scale.

“I’m very happy to see any effort in openness. We need more of this.” Our CEO Ali Farhadi spoke with Will Knight about openness in AI, like Databricks' #DBRX .

PS: if you are also attending GenLaw and are looking for opportunities to research at the intersection of AI, Law, and Policy, let's chat 😊

🎉Congratulations to Elaine Zhong, recipient of our 2024 Outstanding Engineer Scholarship! We’re impressed and inspired by Elaine’s determination and desire to make a real impact in AI. Get to know Elaine on the blog: blog.allenai.org/elaine-zhong-a…

AI is transforming climate forecasts — and our Climate Modeling team is leading the way. They recently developed a machine-learning emulator called ACE, which accurately forecasts atmospheric variables 6 hours ahead of a comparable physics-based model and runs 100 times faster

We’re at an important inflection point for AI that requires a community of researchers, engineers and technologists to better understand it and drive meaningful innovation. We’re glad to be working with organizations like Allen Institute for AI!
