SML Unveils Hanooman, Sets Ola Krutrim On Fire
The much awaited Indic AI chatbot to compete with OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Ola’s Krutrim is finally here. SML has silently released Hanooman.ai chatbot, which is surprisingly fast. Click here to chat with Hanooman. The model is very fast and gives quick and crisp responses to asked questions. Currently released in Alpha, the model also allows users to select between nine languages. Upon testing, AIM found that the responses it generates are very short even after specific prompts. It also sometimes auto translates languages even while the prompt was different. Given the shorter context length, it also can’t keep track of a conversation as it replies to each question independently which defeats the purpose of a personal AI assistant. Moreover, the current cut-off data of the model is also April 2022, which is a little outdated. SML’s Hanooman is named after the Hindu deity Hanuman. “Hanuman is a great example of responsible power. Despite being the most-powerful entity, he never used his power for selfish needs,” said Vishnu Vardhan, founder of SML and Vizzhy, in an exclusive interview with AIM. “We don’t want it to be like ChatGPT, which suffers from the ‘I’m God and I know everything’ syndrome. We don’t want to simply replicate its success [but be more than that],”said Vardhan, adding that they are currently focusing on specific use cases for Hanooman. Meanwhile, Ola’s Krutrim chatbot is unable to respond to a lot of queries and still hallucinates a lot. It does not give responses to several questions citing the reason that it is an AI model without up to date information. Vardhan had also promised that Hanooman will come out as an open source model in several different sizes, which is still awaited.
