Microsoft's 14B parameter Small Language Model (SLM): delivers state-of-the-art performance, surpassing models like Gemini 1.0 Pro, optimized for reasoning and instruction-following.

Phi-3 Medium is a 14-billion parameter, dense decoder-only Transformer from Microsoft: a powerful Small Language Model (SLM) built for commercial and research deployment. It leverages a rigorous training pipeline, including 4.8 trillion tokens of high-quality, reasoning-dense data, Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO). Available in 4K and 128K context variants, the model demonstrates state-of-the-art performance among lightweight models. Its core strengths lie in complex reasoning, mathematics, and precise instruction adherence, with benchmark results (e.g., MMLU-Pro) approaching the Llama 3 70B level.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [Harmonising AI and Music: Playa Music's Innovative Playlist Generation and Discovery](https://paris.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_D0RsV07-nFI)

We'll demonstrate two cutting-edge AI models that are revolutionizing music discovery and playlist creation: groove-scout-1.3: An advanced playlist search engine that generates unique album artwork. party-time-1.4: A generative playlisting engine, akin to a "PlaylistGPT". Our demo will showcase how we've integrated multiple language models (including Claude-3.5-Sonnet, GPT-4, phi3:medium, and others) with our proprietary Cynthia search engine to create a groundbreaking musical experience. We'll present live demonstrations of both models, highlighting the technical challenges overcome and the innovative solutions implemented.
