The Journey
3 min readAug 26, 2023

Well…Well…Well…! Happiness is when your mind is occupied. I am trying to be relevant & learning every day to make amends to myself.

Yes! That’s what this year is all about for me.

Working in tech made me realize that only a few thrive in tech careers! The rest just do RDP into the Windows box somewhere!

I don’t want to be an old grumpy lady (till now it was the grumpy man!! hehe! We certainly made progress.) who talks about how great PHP and Linux were.

The tech world has moved so far ahead. & I wanna be there too.

So let’s get rollin'…..!

🚀 Introducing Code Llama: Your New Coding Companion! 🐍👩‍💻

Fellow tech enthusiasts and coding maestros! We’ve got some electrifying news yesterday. Say hello to Code Llama, the trailblazing large language model (LLM) that’s here to turbocharge your coding experience. Imagine a llama that not only spits out lines of code but also engages in chit-chats about your favorite programming languages.

Yep, that’s Code Llama for you! 🦙💬

What makes Code Llama a star in the AI galaxy is its knack for generating and discussing code using simple text prompts. It’s like having a genius coding buddy by your side 24/7, helping you breeze through those coding conundrums. This isn’t just another tool; it’s a potential game-changer for developers and budding coders alike.

But wait, there’s more! Code Llama comes in three sizes — small, medium, and “holy moly, that’s huge” (7B, 13B, and 34B parameters, to be exact).

Each model is a coding virtuoso, trained on a whopping 500 billion tokens of code and coding-related data.

The smaller models are like the Flash, giving you lightning-fast responses and real-time code completion.

The big guy? Well, it’s like having a coding guru who knows every programming language on the block.

A special treat for Python aficionados………..

🐍 🐍 🐍 Code Llama — Python! 🐍 🐍 🐍

This variant is all about speaking Python fluently, making it your go-to companion for all things Pythonic.

Plus, there’s Code Llama — Instruct, finely tuned to understand your instructions and deliver results that are as helpful as a GPS guiding you through a maze.

AaaaammmmmaaziiiiiiinG!

So, whether you’re a seasoned coder or just dipping your toes into the programming ocean, Code Llama is your trusty sidekick. Let’s make coding cooler, faster, and a whole lot more llama-tastic! 🚀🦙💻
