It’s not quite as simple as that. Several studies have shown the opposite: models trained on more diverse knowledge tend to cross-pollinate across domains. So a more generalized model can actually perform better than a specialized one.

That’s why you’re not seeing tons of tiny models (one for Python, one for Pascal, one for Rust, etc).
