About

Aquila 2 34B is a powerful bilingual large language model (LLM) created by the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI), utilizing a transformer-based architecture akin to models like GPT-3. Designed for both Chinese and English language processing, it excels in generating coherent text, understanding languages, answering questions, summarizing content, and some aspects of code generation. The model incorporates advanced training technologies such as the HeuriMentor framework to boost efficiency significantly. Though comparable or superior to GPT-3.5 in some evaluations, it has faced challenges like data leakage issues affecting its performance metrics. Aquila 2 34B supports extensive context lengths of up to 8192 tokens, making it suitable for complex conversational AI applications. Despite its strengths, users should be mindful of potential limitations and licensing conditions under the BAAI Aquila Model License Agreement.

Aquila 2 34B is a model in the Aquila 2 family. The structured metadata tracks a 2k-token context window. No headline benchmark score is tracked for Aquila 2 34B yet.
