๐ท๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐จ Announcing the Foundation Model Development Cheatsheet!
My first ๐คPost๐ค ever to announce the release of a fantastic collaborative resource to support model developers across the full development stack: The FM Development Cheatsheet available here: https://fmcheatsheet.org/
The cheatsheet is a growing database of the many crucial resources coming from open research and development efforts to support the responsible development of models. This new resource highlights essential yet often underutilized tools in order to make it as easy as possible for developers to adopt best practices, covering among other aspects: ๐ง๐ผโ๐คโ๐ง๐ผ data selection, curation, and governance; ๐ accurate and limitations-aware documentation; โก energy efficiency throughout the training phase; ๐ thorough capability assessments and risk evaluations; ๐ environmentally and socially conscious deployment strategies.
We strongly encourage developers working on creating and improving models to make full use of the tools listed here, and to help keep the resource up to date by adding the resources that you yourself have developed or found useful in your own practice ๐ค
An increasing number of engineers and researchers are developing foundational models. Navigating the tools, resources, codebases, and best practices guides is daunting for new contributors.
