The new 3B "fully open source" model from AMD (rocm.blogs.amd.com)

This is again a big win on the red team at least for me. They developed a "fully open" 3B parameters model family trained from scratch on AMD Instinct™ MI300X GPUs.

AMD is excited to announce Instella, a family of fully open state-of-the-art 3-billion-parameter language models (LMs) [...]. Instella models outperform existing fully open models of similar sizes and achieve competitive performance compared to state-of-the-art open-weight models such as Llama-3.2-3B, Gemma-2-2B, and Qwen-2.5-3B [...].

As shown in this image (https://rocm.blogs.amd.com/_images/scaling_perf_instruct.png) this model outperforms current other "fully open" models, coming next to open weight only models.

A step further, thank you AMD.

PS : not doing AMD propaganda but thanks them to help and contribute to the Open Source World.

I'll bite, what is malicious about this?

What's malicious about AI and LLMs? Have you been living under a rock?

At best it is useless, and at worst it is detrimental to society.

I disagree, LLMs have been very helpful for me and I do not see how an open source AI model trained with open source datasets is detrimental to society.

So in a nutshell, it's malicious because you said so

Ok gotcha Mr/Ms/Mrs TechnoBigot
