Meta Debuts Code Llama 70B: A Powerful Code Generation AI Model

Meta updated its foundation model, Code Llama, to support 70B, which makes it a viable alternative to closed AI code models.

Code Llama 70B is described as the "largest and best-performing model" yet, capable of handling more queries than previous versions, thus allowing developers to feed it more prompts while programming and increasing its accuracy.

Code Llama 70B is built on Llama 2 and aids developers in creating snippets of code from prompts and debugging human-written work. It was trained on a massive 1TB of code and code-related data. The model is currently hosted on the code repository Hugging Face. The model is offered in three different versions and, similar to the original Llama 2 model, it continues to be available for free for research purposes. The inference code for Code Llama models is available on GitHub.
