Curious how it actually compares to LLaMa.

Last year Mistral was garbage compared to LLaMa. I needed a permissive license, so I was forced to use Mistral, but I had LLaMa that I could compare it to. I was always extremely jealous of LLaMa since the Berkley Sterling finetune was so amazing.

I ended up giving up on the project because Mistral was so unusable.

My conspiracy was that there was some European patriotism that gave Mistral a bit more hype than was merited.
