AI models
Which AI models does basebox use?
The best-performing open-source models in each category. Currently, this is Mixtral 7x8B.
Why can’t I just use ChatGPT and similar services?
Because you are giving your data and your company knowledge to the outside world.
What other advantages does basebox offer?
- Full access control. You set the budget for AI usage and can thus avoid escalating costs.
- You determine which employees have access to the AI systems and can also change these rights as needed, e.g., when employees change roles.
- Your employees can create their own apps and publish them in the company’s own app store, promoting modern knowledge management.
What is the difference between basebox and ChatGPT?
- basebox contains its own AI model.
- Your company’s data remains within your company and is not sent to the model providers.
- basebox does not store any data (prompts, files).
- You control the usage in terms of costs, employees, and AI applications used.
I already have AI, can I use it with basebox?
Yes, that is possible. We make it easy to integrate your own models via the integrated API. With local hosting, this is even free of charge.
How does basebox ensure that the AI answers are correct?
basebox can help increase the accuracy and reliability of AI model responses using various techniques. One technique is sampling, which involves asking the model the same question multiple times to examine whether the answers differ. Additionally, basebox uses the best models available on the open-source market. However, AI models are software programs, and false statements are possible and cannot be completely prevented.
Can I train my own LLM?
No. basebox is not intended for training your own models. The platform focuses on the use and application of already trained models. However, it is easy to integrate your own, already trained models into basebox. The transfer of models from platforms such as Hugging Face is particularly straightforward. For local hosting, there are no additional costs for this function. We offer cost-effective options for hosting in the cloud and special conditions for scientific institutions.
Which AIs/LLMs can I use?
All of them over the next 24 months, including publicly available ones like ChatGPT, as well as open-source models or self-trained models.
Can basebox help to reduce the hallucinations of the AI I use?
No. We are working on a RAG solution to make this possible.
Can basebox be multimodal?
Currently, basebox is specialized in text processing and does not support other modalities such as image or sound. However, there are plans to integrate other modalities in the future to expand the platform’s functionality and make basebox even more versatile and suitable for a wider range of applications.
Do I need my own data to use basebox? If so, which ones? Why?
No, you do not need your own data. However, you can significantly improve the quality of the answers by using your own data. This function (RAG) will be available in individual applications. –> RAG will only be available in a later version of basebox.
Pricing
Will I receive an invoice?
Yes.
How can I pay? Credit card or invoice?
By credit card.
