Introduction of Code Llama was announced, a leading-edge large language model designed specifically for generating code from text prompts. This development aims to enhance efficiency for developers and provide a more accessible platform for coding novices.
Key features and information about Code Llama include:
- The ability to produce code, as well as descriptive language about code, from both coding and natural language inputs.
- Availability for both research and commercial applications at no cost.
- Code Llama is built upon the Llama 2 framework and comes in three distinct versions:
- Code Llama: The primary code generation model.
- Code Llama – Python: A version specialized for Python programming.
- Code Llama – Instruct: Adapted to comprehend and process natural language directives.
- Benchmark tests indicate that Code Llama surpasses other leading large language models in code-related tasks.
With the advancements in generative AI technology, an open strategy has been adopted for the present AI, mirroring the community license approach of Llama 2. This aims to promote the creation of innovative, secure, and accountable AI tools.
