Short Summary

The video discusses how to pick an enterprise-grade foundation model, particularly focusing on IBM’s Granite Foundation models. It emphasizes evaluating models based on performance, cost-effectiveness, and trustworthiness, highlighting the unique features of the Granite models that set them apart from other large language models (LLMs).

Key Points:

  • Overview of the vast number of language models available, particularly highlighting IBM’s Granite models.
  • Importance of selecting a foundation model suitable for enterprise deployment.
  • Three key metrics for evaluating models:
    • Performance: measured by latency and throughput.
    • Cost-effectiveness: need for low inferencing costs, especially given high energy consumption for generative AI.
    • Trustworthiness: assessed via hallucination scores and transparency in training data.
  • The Granite models are open-source, offering broad commercial usage under the Apache 2.0 license.
  • Transparency in training data is a key feature—Granite models are trained on reliable data sources, unlike many LLMs that are vague on this front.
  • Granite models are designed to be efficient and performant, particularly in coding and language tasks, often outperforming larger counterparts.
  • Details on different models within the Granite family:
    • Granite for Language: various decoder models with different parameter sizes.
    • Granite for Code: trained on multiple programming languages.
    • Granite for Time Series: optimized for forecasting in business and industrial domains.
    • Granite for Geo-Spatial: a partnership model for Earth observations with NASA.
  • Granite models can be applied to various enterprise use cases effectively and efficiently.
