 # <img align="center" src="images/purple_sealion-64x64.png"> A Family of Southeast Asian Language Models
 
-***Updated: 21 August 2024***
+***Updated: 1 November 2024***
 
 SEA-LION is a family of open-source language models developed by AI Singapore that better understands Southeast Asia's diverse contexts, languages, and cultures (SEA). We hope it makes LLMs more accessible and better represents the region's breadth of cultures and languages.
 
-Our first versions of SEA-LION, released in December 2023, were trained from scratch using [SEA-LION-PILE](https://huggingface.co/datasets/aisingapore/sea-lion-pile) (about 1 trillion tokens). Our new version of SEA-LION is based on continued pre-training good open source models. Version 2-2.x is based on Llama 3. We believe that this approach, i.e., continued pre-training, might be more sustainable over the longer run. 
+Version 3 is based on Google's Gemma 2. It is a 9B parameter model, with 200 billion tokens from 11+2 Southeast Asian languages (English, Chinese, Indonesian, Malay, Thai, Vietnamese, Filipino, Tamil, Burmese, Khmer, and Lao), and Javanese and Sudanese. 
 
 ## Transparent and Open Source
 
 We have benefited greatly from the open-source community and believe that efforts to better represent our region will similarly be well served by open-source efforts. SEA-LION will therefore be open and transparent in the following areas:
 
-1. *Pre-Training* data
