You're not. These press releases are for the "technical users" that have heard of and used all of these alternatives. They are not offering a Falcon 2 chat service you can use today. They aren't even offering a chat-tuned Falcon 2 model. The Falcon 2 model in question is a base model, not a chat model. Unless someone is very technical, Falcon 2 is not relevant to them in any way at this point. This is a forum of technical people, which is why it's getting some attention, but I suspect it's still not going to be relevant to most people here.
