The world of artificial intelligence (AI) has stakeholders in the business world and in academia.
One of them is the prestigious Stanford Universitywhich has started its venture with models of IAin the style of ChatGPTwith a tumbo.
Alpacaan artificial intelligence model that Stanford demonstrated on a web site was decommissioned.
Alpaca was based on the LLaMA from Meta and intended to repeat the exploits of ChatGPT But with an investment of hundreds of dollars, instead of millions.
Researchers at Stanford could run the model on computers Raspberry Pi and even a cell phone Google Pixel 6, in a preview that looked promising.
Artificial intelligence and the problems of Alpaca
The page that hosted Alpaca and allowed the public to test its artificial intelligence model was decommissioned.
“The original goal was to release a demo that would allow us to showcase our research in an accessible way. We believe we have mostly achieved this goal. Due to hosting costs and the inadequacy of our filters, we have decided to terminate the demo,” a spokesperson for the responsible department explained to The Register.
Alpaca had “hallucinations,” a term that has become common to describe erroneous claims that artificial intelligence models push as true.
