Jais is an open-source large language model developed in the United Arab Emirates and launched in August 2023. It was trained on both English- and Arabic-language data.
Origin
Jais is named after Jebel Jais, the highest mountain in the United Arab Emirates. [1] It was created in collaboration between Inception, a subsidiary of G42, Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) in Abu Dhabi and California-based Cerebras Systems. [1] [2] [3]
Training
Jais has 13 billion parameters, with an update for 30 billion in the works as of October 2023. [3] It was trained for over 21 days by a team in Abu Dhabi on a subset of Cerebras's Condor Galaxy 1 supercomputer. [1] [2]
Its training dataset consisted of Arabic and English, some containing computer code. [1] [3] According to Timothy Baldwin, provost, and professor of natural language processing at MBZUAI, training the model on a diverse Arabic dataset allows it to switch between dialects. [3]
Features
Jais focuses exclusively on English and Arabic translations. [4] Additional functionality for working with images, graphs and tabular data is planned for future releases. [3]
