Orca

Orca is an esoteric programming language that converts alphanumeric characters into one process. It allows for the creation of procedural sequencing through this structure, where letters are used as commands. It is not a direct synthesizer; MIDI communicates with external audio or visual interfaces by issuing OSC and UDP outputs.

    Orca 2: Teaching Small Language Models How to Reason

    “It isn't. Compared to the original Orca model and method which spawned many of the current SotA OSS models, Orca 2 models seem to perform underwhelming, below outdated 13b models and below Mistral 7b base models (e.g. [1]; didn't test myself yet, ymmv). [1]”

    “Hey, I know the host of that podcast! He has some weird opinions about visual programming. Makes sense he'd be interested in Orca.”
