Phi-3 represents a family of small language models (SLMs) developed by Microsoft, notable for achieving impressive reasoning and language understanding capabilities that often rival or surpass those of significantly larger open-source and proprietary models, despite their compact size. This efficiency allows for deployment in resource-constrained environments, including mobile devices. The Phi-3 family includes models of varying sizes, such as phi-3-mini (3.8B parameters), phi-3-small (7B parameters), and phi-3-medium (14B parameters), each demonstrating strong performance across diverse benchmarks, particularly in areas like code, math, and logic. Trained on a dataset of trillions of tokens, emphasizing high-quality and reasoning-dense data, Phi-3 models aim to offer a cost-effective and efficient alternative for various AI applications, showcasing that with optimized training and data, smaller models can achieve remarkable capabilities.
