This provides a more flexible way for researchers to use AlexaTM 20B in their own work. We have also implemented a function to enable loading the model on up to eight GPUs with limited GPU memory for running inference on instances of Amazon Web Services’ EC2 computation service. We will be releasing the model publicly for non-commercial use to aid the development and evaluation of multilingual large language models (LLMs). The input to the encoder is in the yellow box, the decoder’s output in the pink box.ĪlexaTM 20B is the largest multilingual seq2seq model to date that is also capable of few-shot learning. News summarization by AlexaTM 20B when given only a single example. This allows us to develop new features more rapidly, and in multiple languages, simultaneously. The model can generalize from these to the unfamiliar intent get-news-update and generate utterances corresponding to that intent in different languages. In the example below, the model is provided with three examples of different intents, or tasks that the customer wants executed: book-restaurant, play-music, and get-weather. The experiments reported in the paper - which use only publicly available data - show that AlexaTM 20B can not only transfer what it learns across languages but also learn new tasks from just a handful of examples (few-shot learning). In a follow-up paper, which we've published on arXiv, we have taken this line of research a step further, with a 20-billion-parameter generative model called AlexaTM 20B. In a paper we’re presenting at this year’s Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining Conference (KDD), we showed that 10-billion- and two-billion-parameter AlexaTM models can improve on state-of-art cross-lingual transfer learning and increase Alexa’s accuracy in different locales. This playlist featuring Barenaked Ladies, Lisa Loeb, Casper Babypants (OMG why didn't I think of that name?!?!), Cake and Recess Monkey will ensure your youngster stays ahead of his or her time by keeping just enough of a foot left ironically in the past.New method would enable BERT-based natural-language-processing models to handle longer text strings, run in resource-constrained settings - or sometimes both. And what could be cooler for an ultra-modern kid than going just exactly the right amount of retro?! Whether you are the child of a hipster or a hipster with child, nothing but the coolest of the cool will suffice, even (or maybe especially), when it comes to your choice of tunes. The eclectic combo of hits from Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Maroon 5, Lil Wayne, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars and Linkin Park will keep you jamming all day long. Lest you think I am just some old fogey who is going to use this article as a way to relive her college years, I hand you this playlist to bid you a fond, "So there!" This one may not be full of today's latest hits, but those are easiest enough to find on the first screen of any music app you choose. So back to the playlist dilemma, I did a little fishing around.Īccording to Amazon (again), you can "add music to your playlists at any time within the Amazon Music app." For other devices, like certain Fire tablets, you access Alexa by pressing a button." The categories of help Alexa provides include: For 'hands free' devices, like the Amazon Echo, you access Alexa by saying the wake word (Alexa, Echo, Amazon, or Computer). "You access Alexa differently based on the type of device you are using. For instance, you can ask Alexa a question, such as 'What is the weather today in New York?', or tell Alexa to do something, like 'Add batteries to my shopping list,' or 'Play jazz.' When you speak to Alexa, a recording of what you asked Alexa is sent to Amazon's cloud so we can process and respond to your request. "Alexa allows you to ask questions and make requests using just your voice.
