StarCoder - The LLM to Make You a Coding Star

Explore the StarCoder suite of models in this informative video, examining their development through a collaboration between Hugging Face and other contributors. Learn about the base models trained with 15 billion parameters and for a trillion tokens, focusing on open-source code modeling. Discover StarCoder's unique ability to generate continuous code and fill gaps in existing code. Investigate various applications, including a VS code plugin similar to Copilot and a model for detecting personally identifiable information. Delve into different versions like the base model and StarCoder StarChat Alpha, a fine-tuned version for improved text generation. Gain insights into the model's impressive 8,000-token sequence length, comparable to GPT-4's base model. Follow along as the video covers topics such as the StarCoder blog, tech assistant prompts, different model variations, the code completion playground, and running StarChatAlpha locally.
