News

  • 🐍 FalconMamba-7B is now available. The first pure SSM model of the Falcon series released under the same permissive license. You can interact with it here, and check the FalconMamba Technical Report and FalconMamba blogpost.
  • 📸 Falcon2-11B-vlm is now available. Built on top of the Falcon2-11B model, and released under the same permissive license, this open source model allows users to interact with image content via text.
  • 🎉 TII has just released a new generation of models, starting with Falcon2-11B, a 11B parameters causal decoder-only model and trained over 5,000B tokens of RefinedWeb enhanced with curated corpora. The model is made available under the TII Falcon License 2.0, the permissive Apache 2.0-based software license which includes an acceptable use policy that promotes the responsible use of AI.
  • 💥 TII has open-sourced Falcon-180B for research and commercial utilization! Access the 180B, as well as 7B/40B models, and explore our high-quality web dataset, RefinedWeb.
  • ✨ Falcon-40B/7B are now available under the Apache 2.0 license, TII has waived all royalties and commercial usage restrictions.

FalconMamba LLM

We are excited to announce the release of our groundbreaking LLM model with a pure SSM architecture, setting a new benchmark by outperforming all previous SSM models and achieving performance on par with leading transformer-based models.

Papers:

More details on the new models and their performance can also be found in our FalconMamba blogpost.

Artefact Link Type Details
🐍 FalconMamba-7B Here pretrained model 7B parameters pure SSM trained on ~5,800 billion tokens.
FalconMamba-7B-Instruct Here instruction/chat model Falcon-Mamba-7B finetuned using only SFT.

Falcon2 LLM

Falcon2 LLM is TII's new flagship series of large language models, where we focused on building smaller models with enhanced performance to enable cheaper inference that can encourage the development of more downstream applications and improve the general usability of our models.

Papers:

More details on the new models and their performance can also be found in our Falcon2 blogpost.

See below for a detailed list of artefacts in the Falcon2 LLM family:

Artefact Link Type Details
🦅🦅 Falcon-11B Here pretrained model 11B parameters trained on over 5000 billion tokens.
🦅📸 Falcon-11B-vlm Here vision adapted model Integrating the pretrained CLIP ViT-L/14 vision encoder with our Falcon2-11B chat-finetuned model, and trained with image-text data.

Falcon LLM

Falcon LLM is TII's flagship series of large language models, built from scratch using a custom data pipeline and distributed training library Almazrouei et al. 2023.

Papers:

To promote collaborations and drive innovation, we have open-sourced a number of artefacts:

  • The Falcon-180B pretrained and chat models, under the Falcon-180B TII license. Falcon-180B is the largest and most powerful open-access model available.
  • The Falcon-7/40B pretrained and instruct models, under the Apache 2.0 software license . Falcon-7B/40B models are state-of-the-art for their size, outperforming other open-source models on NLP benchmarks.
  • The RefinedWeb dataset, a massive web dataset with stringent filtering and large-scale deduplication, enabling models trained on web data alone to match or outperform models trained on curated corpora. See 📓 the paper for more information. RefinedWeb is licensed under ODC-By 1.0.

See below for a detailed list of artefacts in the Falcon LLM family:
