We are thrilled to present DBRX, a versatile open LLM developed by Databricks. This innovative model achieves unprecedented performance on a variety of standard benchmarks, setting a new benchmark for existing open LLMs. Additionally, it equips both the open-source community and enterprises crafting their own LLMs with features that were once exclusive to proprietary model APIs; our evaluations indicate that it outperforms GPT-3.5 and competes effectively with Gemini 1.0 Pro. Notably, it excels as a code model, outperforming specialized counterparts like CodeLLaMA-70B in programming tasks, while also demonstrating its prowess as a general-purpose LLM. The remarkable quality of DBRX is complemented by significant enhancements in both training and inference efficiency. Thanks to its advanced fine-grained mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture, DBRX elevates the efficiency of open models to new heights. In terms of inference speed, it can be twice as fast as LLaMA2-70B, and its total and active parameter counts are approximately 40% of those in Grok-1, showcasing its compact design without compromising capability. This combination of speed and size makes DBRX a game-changer in the landscape of open AI models.
