> some opensource models really are strong and useful
To be clear I never said they weren’t strong or useful. I use them for some small tasks too.
I said they’re not equivalent to SOTA models from 6 months ago, which is what is always claimed.
Then it turns into a Motte and Bailey game where that argument is replaced with the simpler argument that they’re useful for open weights models. I’m not disagreeing with that part. I’m disagree with the first assertion that they’re equivalent to Sonnet 4.5
