The authors present phi-1, a new large language model designed for code, with a significantly smaller size compared to other competing models. Phi-1 is Transformer-based with 1.3B parameters, trained for 4 days on 8 A100s, using a combination of web data and synthetically generated textbooks and exercises with GPT-3.5. Despite its comparatively small scale, phi-1 […]

Peter Schultz and his team managed to hack the genetic code by tinkering with the machinery of protein synthesis. By chemically attaching unnatural amino acids to transfer RNAs (tRNAs) that could recognize one of the three stop codons, and identifying and modifying tRNAs and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases that were bio-orthogonal to the host cell, they were […]
