Meta launches AI code-writing tool “Code Llama”
Meta has released Code Llama, a tool built on its Llama 2 large language model, to generate new code and debug human-written work. It uses the same community license and is free for research and commercial use. Code Llama can create code strings from prompts or complete and debug code when pointed to a specific code string. Meta also released a Python-specialized version called Code Llama-Python and a version called Code Llama-Instrct, which understands instructions in natural language. The company does not recommend using the base Code Llama or Code Llama-Python for natural language instructions.
Based on benchmark testing, Meta asserts that Code Llama outperformed publicly accessible LLMs, however it did not specify which models it tested against. According to the business, Code Llama was able to accurately produce code based on a written description and achieved a score of 53.7% on the code benchmark HumanEval.
Code Llama will be available in three sizes, with the smallest one fitting on a single GPU for more low-latency tasks, according to Meta.
