This article discusses the latest open LLM (large language model) releases, including Mixtral 8x22B, Meta AI's Llama 3, and Microsoft's Phi-3, and compares their performance on the MMLU benchmark. It also talks about Apple's OpenELM and its efficient language model family with an open-source training and inference framework. The article also explores the use of PPO and DPO algorithms for instruction finetuning and alignment in LLMs.
Not Mixtral MoE but Merge-kit MoE
EveryoneLLM series of models are a new Mixtral type model created using experts that were finetuned by the community, for the community. This is the first model to release in the series and it is a coding specific model. EveryoneLLM, which will be a more generalized model, will be released in the near future after more work is done to fine tune the process of merging Mistral models into a larger Mixtral models with greater success.
The goal of the EveryoneLLM series of models is to be a replacement or an alternative to Mixtral-8x7b that is more suitable for general and specific use, as well as easier to fine tune. Since Mistralai is being secretive about the "secret sause" that makes Mixtral-Instruct such an effective fine tune of the Mixtral-base model, I've decided its time for the community to directly compete with Mistralai on our own.

Not Mixtral MoE but Merge-kit MoE
- What makes a perfect MoE: The secret formula
- Why is a proper merge considered a base model, and how do we distinguish them from a FrankenMoE?
- Why the community working together to improve as a whole is the only way we will get Mixtral right

The article discusses the use of large language models (LLMs) as reasoning engines for powering agent workflows, focusing specifically on ReAct agents. It explains how these agents combine reasoning and action capabilities and provides examples of how they function. Challenges faced while implementing such agents are also mentioned, along with ways to overcome them. Additionally, the integration of open-source models within LangChain is highlighted.
