Introducing Llama 2 - Meta's Next Generation Free Open-Source Artificially Intelligent Large Language Model

It's incredible it's already here! This is great news for everyone in free open-source artificial intelligence.
Llama 2 unleashes Meta's (previously) closed model (Llama) to become free open-source AI, accelerating access and development for large language models (LLMs).
This marks a significant step in machine learning and deep learning technologies. With this move, a widely supported LLM can become a viable choice for businesses, developers, and entrepreneurs to innovate our future using a model that the community has been eagerly awaiting since its initial leak earlier this year.
