“Google announced that it has built a “conversational agent that can chat about… anything,” even the most jaded amongst us had to pay attention.
Meena is a 2.6 billion parameter end-to-end trained neural conversational model.
Meena…was trained over 30 days using 2,048 tensor processing units…on a dataset of 40 billion words.
Meena is very much still in the lab and is very very complex to manage. You cannot incorporate it in a tool just yet”
