BlenderBot 3: A 175B parameter, publicly available chatbot
We’re announcing that Meta AI has built and released BlenderBot 3, the first 175B parameter, publicly available chatbot complete with model weights, code, datasets, and model cards. We’ve deployed it in a live interactive conversational AI demo.
20B-parameter Alexa model sets new marks in few-shot learning
With an encoder-decoder architecture — rather than decoder only — the Alexa Teacher Model excels other large language models on few-shot tasks such as summarization and machine translation.
AlphaFold reveals the structure of the protein universe
Today, in partnership with EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), we’re now releasing predicted structures for nearly all catalogued proteins known to science, which will expand the AlphaFold DB by over 200x - from nearly 1 million structures to over 200 million structures - with the potential to…
Facial hair tracking for high fidelity performance capture
Facial hair is a largely overlooked topic in facial performance capture. Most production pipelines in the entertainment industry do not have a way to automatically capture facial hair or track the skin underneath it. Thus, actors are asked to shave clean before face capture, which is very often undesirable. In this…

ML code generation vs. coding by hand: what we think programming will look like
Will ML code generation like GitHub Copilot replace coding by hand? We say no: developers still maintain generated code, so abstraction matters.
30% of Google's Emotions Dataset Is Mislabeled
Last year, Google released their “GoEmotions” dataset: a human-labeled dataset of 58K Reddit comments categorized according to 27 emotions. The problem? A whopping 30% of the dataset is mislabeled! Check out some of the egregious errors, and learn how to build better datasets.30% of Google's Emotions Dataset is…
