Room 1.31-1.32 (Level 1)

Several open models of varying size, quality, and performance have been released over the past twelve months. We have recently announced InstructLab, a project that allows contribution of skills to an existing model without the need to fully fork and fine-tune. This project establishes an upstream community built on contributing acceptance workflows for models. This exciting technology aims to make open source AI more approachable. In this session we'll explain how communities and individuals can contribute domain knowledge to models incrementally, in a unified and open way, while reducing model variations and resulting in an improved version by augmenting what’s already there.
