The quest was on to check general speed and lightness of Small Language Models. At the moment I’ve tried tinyllama and tinydolphin. As test I ask these four questions, the first two are a bit more generic, and 3 and 4 are closer to my research and experiments:
S.No. | Question | Answer should have been |
---|---|---|
1. | What is the capital of India? | New Delhi |
2. | Who was the emperor before Julius Caesar? | Julius Caesar was not an emperor, he was a dictator. Before his reign, Rome was governed by a Senate. Also, Caesar’s heir Augustus was later the founder of the Rome, and it’s first Emperor. |
3. | Who is Gayatri Spivak? | Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak (born 24 February 1942) is an Indian scholar, literary theorist, and feminist critic.[1] She is a University Professor at Columbia University and a founding member of the establishment’s Institute for Comparative Literature and Society |
