How To Get Started With the Model > With T5, we propose reframing all NLP tasks into a unified text-to-text-format where the input and output are always text strings, in contrast to BERT-style models that can only output either a class label or a span of the input. Our text-to-text framework allows us to use the same model, loss function, and hyperparameters on any NLP task. > Our text-to-text framework allows us to use the same model, loss function, and hyperparameters on any NLP task, including machine translation, document summarization, question answering, and classification tasks (e.g., sentiment analysis). We can even apply T5 to regression tasks by training it to predict the string representation of a number instead of the number itself.

- Dropout was turned off in pre-training (quality win). Dropout should be re-enabled during fine-tuning. - "xl" and "xxl" replace "3B" and "11B". The model shapes are a bit different - larger `d_model` and smaller `num_heads` and `d_ff`. **Note**: T5 Version 1.1 was only pre-trained on C4 excluding any supervised training. Therefore, this model has to be fine-tuned before it is useable on a downstream task. Pretraining Dataset: C4

T5 Version 1.1 includes the following improvements compared to the original T5 model- GEGLU activation in feed-forward hidden layer, rather than ReLU - see here. **Note**: T5 Version 1.1 was only pre-trained on C4 excluding any supervised training.

Selection guide & FAQ
How should API prices be compared?+
Separate input, output and cache rates, then estimate the same workload. Image, audio and video rates may use items, duration or resolution rather than tokens.
Do open weights mean free commercial use?+
Not necessarily. Check each version’s license, commercial restrictions and policies. Self-hosting also incurs compute and maintenance costs.
Is the top-ranked model the best for me?+
Rankings depend on tasks, versions and methods. Compare accuracy, latency, reliability and costs on your own workload.
