What is Dolly?

Dolly is a family of large language models (LLMs) developed by Databricks. Dolly 2.0 is notable for being one of the first open-source, instruction-tuned LLMs based on the Pythia model family and trained on a human-generated instruction dataset. It's designed to be used for various natural language processing tasks, such as question answering, text generation, and more, with a focus on being commercially usable.
