Bamba: An open-source LLM that crosses a transformer with an SSM

The article announces Bamba, an open-source Large Language Model (LLM) that integrates a transformer architecture with a State Space Model (SSM). This suggests a potential advancement in LLM design, possibly aiming to improve performance or efficiency by leveraging the strengths of both architectures. The open-source nature encourages community contribution and experimentation.

• •Bamba is an open-source LLM.
• •It combines a transformer with an SSM.
• •This could lead to improved LLM performance or efficiency.
