I’m biased because I used to work for Facebook a long time ago. So take my words with a grain of salt.

But Facebook research really wants to build amazing tech to power new experiences. The company has attracted many smart and amazing developers who want to pioneer innovation and want to see their work thrive in the broader tech community.

I’m sure this will have the same issues as the other Large Language Models and there’s a lot of work to be done to figure out how to distill a reliably useful system from something trained on so much human language which is unreliable.

I’m heartened to see them talk about needing to research how to remove bias, toxicity, disinformation and hallucinations.

This is something we need to focus on for all LLMs so I’m happy to see more focus on that in the community.
