GPT-3's free alternative GPT-Neo is something to be excited about

The advent of Transformers in 2017 completely changed the world of neural networks. Ever since, the core concept of Transformers has been remixed, repackaged, and rebundled in several models. The results have surpassed the state of the art in several machine learning benchmarks. In fact, currently all top benchmarks in the field of natural language processing are dominated by Transformer-based models. Some of the Transformer-family models are BERT, ALBERT, and the GPT series of models.
