Orca AI Model

Microsoft's open-source LLM using explanation tuning to learn reasoning from GPT-4

AI Infrastructure & MLOpsFree

Orca is a series of open-source language models from Microsoft Research that use a novel technique called explanation tuning, where the models learn from GPT-4's step-by-step reasoning explanations rather than just its answers. This approach enables smaller models to develop stronger reasoning capabilities by understanding the thought process behind answers. Orca and Orca 2 demonstrated that explanation-rich fine-tuning produces more capable small models. AI researchers studying reasoning in language models and developers seeking efficient but capable models use Orca as a reference.
