The incredible contribution of Alpaca is showing the world how to efficicently train LLM on instructions. The fact that it did so on 52k instructions generated by GPT is poetic. It does not matter what current capabilities of open source models are, because this opens the door to tremendous democratization of the ability to train and self-deploy these models. In less than 6 months we will have open source models with gpt3-like capabilities, running locally on laptops, and potentially in phones and web browsers.
