Databricks to acquire @tabulario, a data platform from the original creators of Apache Iceberg. Together, we will bring format compatibility to the lakehouse for @DeltaLakeOSS and @ApacheIceberg

DM's open!

DBRX was trained using tools that are available to our customers. Literally any customer could train a state of the art, frontier model with our tools. Pretty cool!

[Lucas Firmstone @lucfirmstone]

@stewartsherpa @DbrxMosaicAI @databricks The best in the biz!

"It's the best open model in the world"

Incredible work by the team here at Databricks and a milestone in sota open-source model development. Check it out here: https://t.co/sIFm2KC21A

Meet our new AI, #DBRX

DBRX is an advance in what language models can do per $. These economics will have profound impacts on how AI is used, and we've built this to democratize these capabilities!

It's the best open model in the world. It closes the gap to closed models in a meaningful way. It also demonstrates the "full power of the deathstar"...the combination of a true data platform combined with the best-in-class LLM training platform

See details below 👇

[Naveen Rao @NaveenGRao]

Take a listen if you want to hear more about our tools to support pre-training, fine tuning, and general model customization!

[Naveen Rao @NaveenGRao]

On this Nvidia-stock-bump-day remember that @databricks / @MosaicML we make each GPU worth 2-5x as much through software and algorithm innovations :) DM me if you're building, tuning, or serving large AI models!

[Naveen Rao @NaveenGRao]

Chamath is right...if you want/need to build models talk to us @databricks. If you want to serve them, tune them, RAG them, talk to us. There is no need to sign 3 year compute contracts for resources that you'll utilize at 5%.

[Ali Ghodsi @alighodsi]

I think this will mark an important milestone for Gen AI. The spotlight has been on the capabilities of LLMs (scaling laws, leaderboards, etc). But it's now clear that LLM performance alone will be meaningless. You will need a Compound AI system to get the best performance out of the models. Going forward, I think we'll see big breakthroughs in how people build full AI systems.

[Databricks AI Research @DbrxMosaicAI]

We're excited to have contributed to the development of the OLMo open source model from @allen_ai which was developed using the @databricks Mosaic AI training platform. Read the blog post from @jefrankle to learn more: https://t.co/PHTib8LtH9

[Barry Dauber @barrydauber]

Thanks @OthersideAI for the partnership! We're thrilled you're along for the journey with us @databricks using the Mosaic AI suite of tools

[Lucas Firmstone @lucfirmstone]

@coffeewithone @mintlify @infisical @metaphorsystems need GPUs?😅

[Lucas Firmstone @lucfirmstone]

@bindureddy Haha not exactly, however, we do offer volume discounting - would that help?

[Databricks AI Research @DbrxMosaicAI]

Yeah, you right! We'll be at the #NeurIPS2023 expo hall all day handing out go-cups and talking about #GenAI training at scale. Come say hi! 👋⚜️💚

[Naveen Rao @NaveenGRao]

This is all the more reason to build and control your own LLMs for industrial applications.

[Lucas Firmstone @lucfirmstone]

Try out this open and FREE version of LlamaGuard! Amazing work by the team here at Mosaic.

[Naveen Rao @NaveenGRao]

Thanks to our friends @Meta @AIatMeta for releasing the LlamaGuard model as part of the Purple Llama project!
