Recently, Large Language Models (LLMs) have undergone a significant transformation, marked by a rapid rise in both their popularity and capabilities. Open-source LLMs, such as LLaMA and Mistral, have made great contributions to the ever-increasing popularity of LLMs due to the ease to customize and deploy the models across various applications. Although LLMs offer unprecedented opportunities for research and innovation, its commercialization has raised concerns about transparency, reproducibility, and safety. Many open LLM models lack the necessary components (such as training code and data) for full understanding and reproducibility, and some use restrictive licenses whilst claiming to be “open-source”, which may hinder further innovations on LLMs. To mitigate this issue, we follow the Model Openness Framework (MOF), a ranked classification system that rates machine learning models based on their completeness and openness, following principles of open science, open source, open data, and open access. We present a truly open source LLM Moxin 7B and release pre-training code and configurations, training and fine-tuning data, and intermediate and final checkpoints, aiming to make continuous commitments to fully open-source LLMs.

As the inevitable path towards general artificial intelligence, multimodal large models have shown great potential for intelligent transition. It is not only at the forefront of academic exploration but also a catalyst for building a community with a shared future for mankind and promoting global cooperation. High deployment and inference costs, frequent hallucination behaviors, and scarce high-quality data all greatly restrict the development of multimodal large models. Starting from these key issues, MiniCPM-V has for the first time achieved comparable end-side multimodal understanding capabilities to closed-source commercial multimodal large models.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated potential in visual instruction following across various tasks. Recently, some studies have integrated MLLMs into robotic manipulation, allowing robots to interpret multimodal information and predict low-level actions. While MLLM-based policies have shown promising progress, they may predict failure execution poses when faced with novel tasks or categories. Given these challenges, we raise a question: “Can we develop an end-to-end robotic agent that not only possesses manipulation skills but also effectively corrects low-level failure actions?” Drawing inspiration from Daniel Kahneman's assertion that "human thinking is divided into a fast system and a slow system, which separately represent intuitive processes and more logical reasoning," we introduce a series of research works that mimic a human-like thinking paradigm to address the above question.

OminiX: Towards Unified Library and Acceleration Framework for Generative AI Models on Different Hardware Platforms
Time

Speakers
Yanzhi Wang
In the generative AI era, general users need to apply different base models, finetuned checkpoints, and LoRAs. Also the data privacy and real-time requirement will favor on-device, local deployment of large-scale generative AI models. It is desirable to develop a "plug-and-play" framework such that users can download any generative AI model, click and run on their own device. This poses significant challenge to the current AI deployment frameworks, which are typically time-consuming and requires human expertise of hardware and code generation. We present our effort of OminiX, which is a first step towards unified library and acceleartion of generative AI models across various hardware platforms. Integrating our unique front-end library and back-end instantaneous acceleration techniques, which will be open-source soon, we show capability of plug-and-play deployment and state-of-the-art acceleration of various generative AI models, starting from image generation, large language models, multi-model language models, speech generation and voice cloning, real-time chatting engine, real-time translation, video generation, real-time avatar, to name a few. This can be achieved without server, just on everyone's own platform.
