Paper I’ve been reading 📝

  • Lu et al (2023) just released LLaMa-Adapter, which is able to turn Meta AI’s LLaMa into an instruction-following model within just 1 hour.

  • ELI5: LLaMA-Adapter is like a custom-made kit that can transform a regular car into a self-driving car in one hour.

  • The kit comes with 1.2M components and 52K instructions that can be easily installed on the car to equip it with the ability to follow instructions.

  • The components allow the car to take in instructional cues, keeping its existing features intact, and apply them to follow instructions.

  • You can find the full paper here (arXiv) and the code here (Github).
