Fudan MOSS responded that the server was crushed: the model is very immature
News on February 21, yesterday, the Fudan team released MOSS, the first ChatGPT-like model in China, which attracted the attention of netizens. Due to the excessive pressure of instantaneous access, the MOSS server was crushed that night.
Today, the official website of MOSS issued an announcement in response, saying that MOSS is still a very immature model, and there is still a long way to go before ChatGPT. One of our academic research laboratories cannot make a model similar to ChatGPT's capabilities. MOSS just wants to explore and verify the technical route of ChatGPT on a scale of tens of billions of parameters, and realize various dialogue capabilities.
The Fudan team stated, “Our original idea was to conduct internal testing of MOSS so that we could further optimize it. We did not expect to attract such a large amount of attention. Our computing resources are not enough to support such a large amount of visits. As an academic team, we There is also no relevant engineering experience, which has caused a very bad experience and first impression for everyone, and I would like to express my sincere condolences to everyone.”
The statement revealed that after MOSS completes the preliminary verification, the Fudan team will open source the experience, code, and model parameters of MOSS.
In addition, the announcement also explained that the name of MOSS originated from "The Wandering Earth", "When we completed the training of the first generation model, it was just when the Wandering Earth 2 was being released. The MOSS in the film left a deep impression on everyone in the team, so We use such a name to refer to our model to express our relentless pursuit of the most cutting-edge AI models."
