Indian AI startup Sarvam AI has released OpenHathi-Hi-v0.1, the first Hindi LLM in the OpenHathi series. Developed on a budget-friendly platform, the model, an extension of Llama2-7B, boasts GPT-3.5-like performance for Indic languages.
OpenHathi, featuring a 48K-token extension of Llama2-7B’s tokenizer, undergoes a two-phase training process. The initial phase focuses on embedding alignment, aligning randomly initialized Hindi embeddings, followed by bilingual language modeling, teaching the model cross-lingual attention across tokens.
