It is reported that LI built the original base model of Mind GPT from 0 to 1, and the model structure adopted the self-developed TaskFormer neural network architecture. Based on the scenes of car use, entertainment, travel and so on, a series of trainings were conducted by using SFT, RLHF and other technologies. Let Mind GPT have three abilities of understanding, generation, knowledge memory and reasoning.
So what is the level of Mind GPT in the industry?
At present, C-EVAL, an authoritative evaluation list of Chinese large language models in China, covers 52 disciplines in humanities, social sciences, science and engineering, and Mind GPT ranks first among 58 large models participating in the evaluation; At the same time, there is also an evaluation list covering 67 subject areas from basic disciplines to advanced majors, and Mind GPT also won the first place and won the double champion.
Mind GPT has tailored more than 1,000 exclusive abilities covering 111 fields based on the key scenes of ideal students, and it is still evolving and growing rapidly.
What’s even more rare is that Mind GPT is the only big model in the industry that can be used without any instruction words, and it is also a big model built around the car scene. It is not only knowledgeable, but also can query the Internet information in real time, and at the same time support all seats in the whole car to be used. Everyone in the whole family can have a car assistant, a travel assistant, an entertainment assistant and an encyclopedia "teacher". It is a super powerful pure self-developed big model that integrates the whole scene.
It also has an ideal classmate with an all-round evolution of listening sense and execution ability, and supports the free speaking of dialects, the free speaking of instructions, the concise mode and the ability to avoid waking up all the time.
