AI Model Selection Guide
Overview
Understanding the strengths of different AI models is crucial for selecting the most suitable model for your specific use case. This guide provides an overview of SectorFlow’s available models, their context windows, and their respective strengths.
How to Read This Table
The table below lists our available AI models, their corresponding context window sizes, and their strengths. The context window size represents the maximum number of tokens (roughly equivalent to words) that the model can consider from the previous conversation or input.
A larger context window allows the model to retain and reference more information from the previous context, potentially leading to more coherent and relevant responses. However, it's important to note that a larger context window does not necessarily guarantee better performance, as other factors such as model architecture, training data, and fine-tuning also play a significant role.

What is a Context Window?
The context window refers to the maximum amount of previous context (conversation history, prompt, or input) that an AI model can consider when generating a response. It is measured in tokens, which are roughly equivalent to words or word pieces.
A larger context window allows the model to retain and reference more information from the previous context, potentially leading to more coherent and relevant responses. However, it's important to note that a larger context window does not necessarily guarantee better performance, as other factors such as model architecture, training data, and fine-tuning also play a significant role.
When selecting an AI model, it's crucial to consider the context window size in relation to your specific use case. For example, if you're working on a task that requires extensive context and long-form content generation, a model with a larger context window may be more suitable. Conversely, if you're working on a task that requires quick and responsive interaction, a model with a smaller context window but faster inference speed may be preferable.
Remember, this guide provides a general overview of our available models and their strengths. Ultimately, the selection of the most appropriate model will depend on your specific requirements, constraints, and the nature of the task at hand.
