Jokes aside, it's very promising. For sure a lucrative market down the line, but definitely not for a model of size 8B. I think lower level intellect param amount is around 80B (but what do I know). Best of luck!
You don't actually need "frontier models" for Real Work (c).
(Summarization, classification and the rest of the usual NLP suspects.)
Like, give me semantic search that can detect the difference between SSL and TLS without needing to put a full LLM in the loop.
If we are going for accuracy, the question should be asked multiple times on multiple models and see if there is agreement.
But I do think once you hit 80B, you can struggle to see the difference between SOTA.
That said, GPT4.5 was the GOAT. I can't imagine how expensive that one was to run.
Snarky, but true. It is truly astounding, and feels categorically different. But it's also perfectly useless at the moment. A digital fidget spinner.
do you have the foresight of a nematode?
