CodeT5-base is an AI model developed by Salesforce and Nanyang Technological University (United States and Singapore), first published in November 2021. It works in the language domain, on tasks such as code generation.
Training it took an estimated 1.6×10²¹ FLOP of compute (estimation method: hardware). The model has 220,000,000 parameters. Training ran on NVIDIA A100 for about 288 hours. The compute alone is estimated at $3K in 2023 dollars.
Access: Open weights (unrestricted). Its weights are openly available. The reference paper has 1,964 citations. Epoch AI rates the confidence of this record as likely.
