StableLM Zephyr 3B is a new chat model that represents the latest addition to the StableLM series of lightweight Large Language Models (LLMs) from Stability AI.
This model, containing 3 billion parameters, is 60% smaller than 7B models, and is designed to efficiently cater to a wide range of text generation needs without the requirement of high-end hardware.
It adeptly handles various complex applications from simple queries to complex instructional contexts on edge devices. StableLM Zephyr 3B has a performance-tuning preference for instruction following and Q&A-related tasks enabling its use in crafting creative content like copywriting and summarizing information to aiding in developing instructional design and content personalization tasks.
The model is an extension of the pre-existing StableLM 3B-4e1t model and is inspired by the Zephyr 7B model from HuggingFace. StableLM Zephyr 3B has shown in performance tests that it is capable of standing up to models of a larger size which are designed for similar use cases.
