LLaMA
LLaMA is a family of large language models developed by Meta, designed to be efficient and accessible for researchers.

TECHNICAL DEFINITION
LLaMA (Large Language Model Meta AI) is a collection of foundational large language models released by Meta AI, characterized by their smaller parameter counts compared to some contemporaries, making them more efficient for research and fine-tuning.
BACKGROUND
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is a subfield of artificial intelligence (AI) that uses generative models to generate text, images, videos, audio, software code or other forms of data. These models learn the underlying patterns and structures of their training data, and use them to generate new data in response to input, which often takes the form of natural language prompts.
