“Efficiently Produce Code with the Powerful StarCoder 2: Utilizing GPUs for Optimal Performance”
Like most other code generators, StarCoder 2 can suggest ways to complete unfinished lines of code as well as summarize and retrieve snippets of code when asked in natural language.
Trained with 4x more data than the original StarCoder, StarCoder 2 delivers what Hugging Face, ServiceNow and Nvidia characterize as “significantly” improved performance at lower costs to operate.
Setting all this aside for a moment, is StarCoder 2 really superior to the other code generators out there — free or paid?
As with the original StarCoder, StarCoder 2’s training data is available for developers to fork, reproduce or audit as they please.
Hugging Face, which offers model implementation consulting plans, is providing hosted versions of the StarCoder 2 models on its platform.
