Stanford's Alpaca AI Clone of ChatGPT Pulled Down Over Safety and Cost Concerns

TL;DR Summary
Stanford researchers have taken their AI, Alpaca, offline due to concerns over costs and safety. Alpaca was built on a $600 budget and was designed to rival the capabilities of tech by OpenAI and Google. However, it had a propensity for spewing misinformation, a misfiring of LLMs which the AI industry likes to describe as a "hallucination." The researchers acknowledged this shortcoming in their announcement of Alpaca's release. Alpaca's code is still available on GitHub for those who wish to build on the Stanford researcher's findings.
