Baichuan 2 is the new generation of large-scale open-source language models launched by Baichuan Intelligence inc..
It is trained on a high-quality corpus with 2.6 trillion tokens and has achieved the best performance in authoritative Chinese and English benchmarks of the same size.
This release includes 7B and 13B versions for both Base and Chat models, along with a 4bits quantized version for the Chat model.
All versions are fully open to academic research, and developers can also use them for free in commercial applications after obtaining an official commercial license through email request.
The specific release versions and download links are listed in the table below:
In the Baichuan 2 series models, we have utilized the new feature F.scaled_dot_product_attention introduced in PyTorch 2.0 to accelerate inference speed. Therefore, the model needs to be run in a PyTorch 2.0 environment.
In addition to the Baichuan2-7B-Base model trained on 2.6 trillion tokens, we also offer 11 additional intermediate-stage models for community research, corresponding to training on approximately 0.2 to 2.4 trillion tokens each (Intermediate Checkpoints Download). The graph below shows the performance changes of these checkpoints on three benchmarks: C-Eval, MMLU, and CMMLU.
We hereby declare that our team has not developed any applications based on Baichuan 2 models, not on iOS, Android, the web, or any other platform. We strongly call on all users not to use Baichuan 2 models for any activities that harm national / social security or violate the law. Also, we ask users not to use Baichuan 2 models for Internet services that have not undergone appropriate security reviews and filings. We hope that all users can abide by this principle and ensure that the development of technology proceeds in a regulated and legal environment.
We have done our best to ensure the compliance of the data used in the model training process. However, despite our considerable efforts, there may still be some unforeseeable issues due to the complexity of the model and data. Therefore, if any problems arise due to the use of Baichuan 2 open-source models, including but not limited to data security issues, public opinion risks, or any risks and problems brought about by the model being misled, abused, spread or improperly exploited, we will not assume any responsibility.
