Microsoft Phi-4 (14B) - This Opensource LLM is a MINI BEAST! The Best 14B Model YET! (Beats Qwen!)



AI Summary

Summary of the Video Transcript

  • Microsoft launched a new small language model called 54 54, part of the FI family, with 14 billion parameters.
  • It is designed to run on computers with 16 GB VRAM or Macs with 24 GB of RAM.
  • The model is touted to be cost-effective for inference and capable of complex reasoning, including math and conventional language processing.

Benchmarks

  • The technical report shows 54 54 outperforms Quin 2.51 14b in most benchmarks, closely matches llama 337b, and even beats GPT 40 in some.
  • However, it supports a shorter context length of 16k tokens compared to the common 128k.

Availability and Usage

  • The model is accessible on Azure AI Foundry and will be on Hugging Face.
  • Some users have extracted and shared the model weights, making them available on Hugging Face and AMA for local use.
  • To use the model effectively, it is recommended to set the temperature to 0.5, top probability to 0.5, and context length to 16k.

Testing the Model

  • The model was tested with 13 questions covering various topics and tasks, including reasoning, math, and coding.
  • It performed well, passing most tests and demonstrating capabilities comparable to larger models.

Final Thoughts

  • The 54 54 model is highly praised for its performance relative to its size.
  • The technical paper detailing the model’s development is also commended.
