Question

    Analyze the statement and answer the question below:

    "Microsoft has recently introduced the Phi-3-Mini, a small language model (SLM) which is a part of its Phi-3 series, designed to perform well on a range of tasks like language, reasoning, coding, and math. This model is particularly noted for its suitability in resource-constrained environments."

    Which of the following is NOT a stated advantage of the Phi-3-Mini compared to larger language models (LLMs)?

    A Lower cost of operation Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Better performance on small devices Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Longer context window for processing text Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Reduced computing power and energy demands Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Immediate readiness for use due to instruction tuning Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The Phi-3-Mini is praised for its cost-effectiveness, efficiency on smaller devices, and reduced power and energy demands. However, it does not necessarily offer a longer context window than larger language models; instead, it supports a context window of up to 128K tokens, which is notable but not exclusively superior to LLMs in terms of length.
