What is longchat-13b-16k?

LongChat-13B-16k is an advanced open-source chatbot developed by researchers at LMSYS. It's built upon the LLaMA-13B architecture and has been fine-tuned using a dataset of 18,000 conversations from ShareGPT. What sets this model apart is its implementation of condensing rotary embedding technique, enabling it to handle significantly longer context windows of up to 16,384 tokens.
