ServiceNow, Hugging Face, and NVIDIA Unveil StarCoder2 - New Family of Large Language Models for Code Generation
-
StarCoder2 is a new family of open-access large language models for code generation, created by ServiceNow, Hugging Face, and NVIDIA.
-
It is trained on over 600 programming languages and can be used for tasks like code completion, code summarization, and more.
-
There are 3 model sizes - 3 billion, 7 billion, and 15 billion parameters - allowing flexibility in compute requirements.
-
The models can be fine-tuned with custom data to create specialized applications like chatbots and coding assistants.
-
It was developed responsibly through the BigCode community, using transparent data sources and governance.
