Thank you to our compute sponsors Together Compute (www.together.ai).
In collaboration with **Ontocord** and **LAION**.

BakLLaVA 1 is a Mistral 7B base augmented with the LLaVA 1.5 architecture. In this first version, we showcase that a Mistral 7B base outperforms Llama 2 13B on several benchmarks.
You can run BakLLaVA-1 on our repo. We are currently updating it to make it easier for you to finetune and inference. (https://github.com/SkunkworksAI/BakLLaVA).
Note: BakLLaVA-1 is fully open-source but was trained on certain data that includes LLaVA's corpus which is not commercially permissive. We will fix this in the upcoming release.
BakLLaVA 2 is cooking with a significantly larger (commercially viable) dataset and a novel architecture that expands beyond the current LLaVA method. BakLLaVA-2 will do away with the restrictions of BakLLaVA-1.
