Facebook releases its AI bot-building research in the form of fastText library

Want to learn from Facebook how does it train its artificial intelligence bots? In a bid to help researchers and engineers, Facebook has made its AI bot-building research available in the form of fastText library – an open-sourced platform, tech website Engadget reported on Friday. Part of the Facebook AI Research lab, the fastText library can cut language training from days to seconds. “Ultimately, we hope that fastText will help us all design better applications and further advance the research in language understanding,” FAIR said in a statement. It can train models “on more than one billion words in less than 10 minutes using a standard multi-core CPU.” “Such a move can also encourage developers to focus on building for Facebook’s platform first,” the report added.
