In the ever-evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 and Llama have garnered significant attention for their impressive capabilities in natural language processing and generation. However, small language models (SLMs) are emerging as an essential counterpart in the AI model community offering a unique advantage for specific use cases. AMD is excited to release its very first small language model, AMD-135M with Speculative Decoding. This work demonstrates the commitment to an open approach to AI which will lead to more inclusive, ethical, and innovative technological progress, helping ensure that its benefits are more widely shared, and its challenges more collaboratively addressed.

AMD-135M is the first small language model for Llama family that was trained from scratch on AMD Instinct™ MI250 accelerators utilizing 670B tokens and divided into two models: AMD-Llama-135M and AMD-Llama-135M-code.
