I kind of disagree. It's not "user friendly" but it is very descriptive. They are codenames afterall. Take "dolphin-2.6-mistral-7b-dpo-laser" for instance : with a little LLM background knowledge, just from the name you know it is a 7 billion parameters model based on Mistral, with a filtered dataset to remove alignment and bias (dolphin), version 2.6 and using the techniques described in the Direct Preference Optimization (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.18290.pdf) and Laser (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2312.13558.pdf) papers to improve its output.

A bit like the User-Agent string.
