Databricks recently launched DBRX, an open, general-purpose large language model (LLM) that claimed to outperform other open-source models on standard benchmarks and aims to democratise the training and tuning of enterprise LLMs.
"At Databricks, our vision has always been to democratise data and AI. We're doing that by delivering data intelligence to every enterprise — helping them understand and use their private data to build their own AI systems. DBRX is the result of that aim," said Ali Ghodsi, co-founder and CEO at Databricks.

Ghodsi expressed his excitement in launching the new open-source model.
Databricks executive claims that the solution has beaten open-source models on industry benchmarks.
“Second, it beats GPT-3.5 on most benchmarks, which should accelerate the trend we're seeing across our customer base as organisations replace proprietary models with open-source models,”

He said DBRX leverages a mixture-of-experts architecture, saying that “the model extremely fast in terms of tokens per second, as well as being cost-effective to serve”.
“All in all, DBRX is setting a new standard for open source LLMs — it gives enterprises a platform to build customised reasoning capabilities based on their data," Ghodsi said.
