  • The Falcon Mamba 7B is the no. 1 globallyperforming open sourceState Space Language Model (SSLM), as independently verified by Hugging Face
  • SSLMs have a low memory cost and don’t require additional memory to generate arbitrary long blocks of text
  • Falcon Mamba 7B also outperforms traditional transformer architecture models such Meta’s Llama 3.1 8B and Mistral’s 7B
  • New model reflectsthe innovation and pioneering approach of Abu Dhabi in AI research and development

Abu Dhabi-UAE: 12thAugust, 2024 – The Technology Innovation Institute (TII), a leading global scientific research center and the applied research pillar of Abu Dhabi’s Advanced Technology Research Council (ATRC), has released a new large language model in its Falcon series, the Falcon Mamba 7B. The new model is the no. 1 globally performing open source State Space Language Model (SSLM)in the world, as independently verified by Hugging Face.
