ModernBERT
The original BERT paper came out in 2018, around 7 years ago at time of writing. However, it is still referred to and used as a strong baseline in a number of NLP tasks. ModernBERT was created by HuggingFace. ModernBERT is a drop-in replacement for use in problems where BERT may have previously been used and like the original, has a base and a large variant.
ModernBERT also outperforms DEBERTA-v3-base which has been a favourite of NLP practitioners for a few years thanks to its few-shot and zero-shot capabilities.
