What’s a good baseline for RAG? 🤔 The literature shows consistent differences in experimental setups, retrievers, datasets, and metrics. So, we built the BERGEN library github.com/naver/bergen to enhance reproducibility and identify strong baselines : 🧵 @naverlabseurope

After spending just 20 minutes with the @MistralAI model, I am shocked by how unsafe it is. It is very rare these days to see a new model so readily reply to even the most malicious instructions. I am super excited about open-source LLMs, but this can't be it! Examples below 🧵
Mistral 7B is out. It outperforms Llama 2 13B on every benchmark we tried. It is also superior to LLaMA 1 34B in code, math, and reasoning, and is released under the Apache 2.0 licence. mistral.ai/news/announcing-m…
