This was great. The timeline was the perfect catch-up I needed. Thank you!

That's a great point, I definitely overlooked these. They look pretty good, too, and I agree with your use cases.

Thanks!

Oh I definitely agree that there are multiple levels of AI research that are valuable. Huge supporter of open source, and not meaning to talk down to anyone working on AI projects.

It's just that at the moment I'm finding the open source LLM community hard to contextualize from an outside perspective. Maybe it's because things are moving so fast (probably a good thing).

I just know that personally, I'm not going to be exploring any projects until I know they're near or exceeding GPT-4 performance level. And it's hard to develop an interest in anything else other than GPT-4 when comparison is so tough to begin with.

There was a lot of detail and data in here, but it's not very useful to me because all of the comparisons are to things I have no experience with.

There's really only one thing I care about: How does this compare to GPT-4?

I have no use for models that aren't at that level. Even though this almost definitely isn't at that level, it's hard to know how close or far it is from the data presented.

No 12Hz is so unfortunate. Hopefully the next Pro Display XDR will have ProMotion, at the very least.

Doesn't VLC do this?

Ha, I thought you were criticizing Coinbase for now being denominated in a long-term worthless US dollar. Funny what happens once you realize that crypto is real money and fiat is imaginary...
