Hate to be one of those, but it’s not open source. It’s just regular old freeware. You can’t built llama yourself and it’s license contains a (admittedly generous) commercial usage restriction.

YMMV wrt your experience and luck. I’m a pretty experienced developer and I struggle to get any useful information out of LLMs for any non-trivial task. At my job (at an LLM-based search company) our CTO uses it on occasion (I can tell by t

I used to agree, but as an experienced engineer asking about rust and y-crdt, it sent me down so many wrong rabbit holes with half valid information. I used Claude recently to refresh my knowledge on the browser history API and it said that

All of what you described can change wildly from model to model. Even across different versions of the same model. Maybe a database could be built with “tells” organized by model.

During inference time, yes, but training time does scale exponentially as backpropagation still has to happen. You can’t use fancy flash attention tricks either.
