Nice to see Georgi has started a company: https://twitter.com/ggerganov/status/1666120568993730561?s=46&t=pO499fGQKTiGvvZPpc-cFw https://twitter.com/ggerganov/

  Nice. He's obviously a talented engineer who's struck a nerve with the whisper.cpp/llama.cpp projects, so hope he has success with whatever he plans to do.

  A lot of work going into refactoring proprietary code that can be randomly deprecated and outcompeted without any prior notice by any number of large competitors... problematic business model, in my opinion.

    He's building a library, ggml; it's generally not hard to add support for new models. For instance llama.ccp already supports the Falcon 7B model (different architecture to llama). And given how politicised AI has become, there's unlikely to be many companies releasing weights for models competitive with the current models (e.g. LLaMA 65B). They may have private models that are better, like GPT3.5 and GPT4, but you can't run these on your own server so they're not competing with ggml.

      > "there's unlikely to be many companies releasing weights for models competitive with the current models" We're at the very dawn of this technology going mainstream, and you're saying that it's unlikely for new players to release new, competing and incompatible models?
