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

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.

Stanford's Cost-Effective AI Cloning Raises Safety Concerns.

Stanford University researchers have taken down the web demo of Alpaca, an open-source seven-billion-parameter AI language model, due to safety and cost concerns. Alpaca was fine-tuned with 50,000 text samples to function more like OpenAI's text-davinci-003. However, the model is prone to generating misinformation and offensive text, and the researchers noted that "hallucination" is a common failure mode for Alpaca. The dataset and code for fine-tuning the model remain available on GitHub, and the researchers plan to release details on the model's weights.
