Microsoft releases powerful new Phi-3.5 models, beating Google, OpenAI and more
The three new Phi 3.5 models include the 3.82 billion parameter Phi-3.5-mini-instruct, the 41.9 billion parameter Phi-3.5-MoE-instruct, and the 4.15 billion parameter Phi-3.5-vision-instruct, each designed for basic/fast reasoning, more powerful reasoning, and vision (image and video analysis) tasks, respectively.
All three models are available for developers to download, use, and fine-tune customize on Hugging Face under a Microsoft-branded MIT License that allows for commercial usage and modification without restrictions.
Amazingly, all three models also boast near state-of-the-art performance across a number of third-party benchmark tests, even beating other AI providers including Google’s Gemini 1.5 Flash, Meta’s Llama 3.1, and even OpenAI’s GPT-4o in some cases.
