LLMs go head-to-head: Open-source models take on commercial giants in 2023

frontend intermediate

TL;DR

Open-source LLMs like Mistral 8x7B offer a more cost-effective solution than commercial giants like Claude and GPT-4.

Google's LLaMA 3 and Meta's Claude are no match for open-source powerhouses like Mistral 8x7B, as a new report shows. The real story? Commercial LLMs come with hefty compute costs and licensing fees, making open-source alternatives the more cost-effective choice for most teams.

Key Takeaways

  • Assess your LLM needs: Calculate TCO for both open-source and commercial models before deciding
  • Explore open-source options: Mistral 8x7B outperforms commercial LLMs in compute costs and licensing fees
  • Consider deployment infrastructure: Cloud-based or on-premise, choose the best fit for your team
