Nvidia and Microsoft Unveil Groundbreaking 530 Billion Parameter AI Model Despite Persistent Bias Challenges
Nvidia and Microsoft Develop 530 Billion Parameter AI Model, but Bias Issues Persist
Nvidia and Microsoft have created an impressive AI model known as the Megatron-Turing Natural Language Generation (MT-NLG), boasting a staggering 530 billion parameters. This model is touted as the “most powerful monolithic transformer language model trained to date,” surpassing the widely recognized GPT-3, which features 175 billion parameters.
The MT-NLG model was trained on 15 different datasets containing a total of 339 billion tokens. To enhance the quality of training, various sampling weights were assigned to the datasets. The OpenWebText2 dataset, which consists of 14.8 billion tokens, received the highest sampling weight at 19.3%. Following closely is the CC-2021-04 dataset, which comprises 82.6 billion tokens and was assigned a weight of 15.7%, and third was Books 3 with 25.7 billion tokens, given a weight of 14.3%.
However, despite the notable increase in parameters, the MT-NLG model exhibits the same biases and toxicity issues observed in previous models. Nvidia and Microsoft acknowledged, “While giant language models are advancing the state of the art on language generation, they also suffer from issues such as bias and toxicity.” They noted that their observations indicate that the model tends to reflect the stereotypes and biases present in its training data.
The companies have expressed their commitment to tackling these bias-related challenges as they continue their work in the AI field.
