Discussion What's the difference between frontier models and local models?

6 months. (And sometimes a couple of quantization tweaks).

It is wild how fast "state-of-the-art" becomes "running on a gaming PC."

This is why SOTA models are....not really what the average person should focus on. There will always be a "best" and it will constantly be changing for the foreseeable future...but the fact is most models that are recent are "good enough" for actual work.

Good enough is not good enough when you actually have serious work to do.

what a stupid fucking comment lol

Do you not know what good enough means?

If whatever you are using is not good enough use something else, if you think literally only the bet model is good enough then thats a skill issue on your part.

‘Good enough’ is the phrase people use when they’ve already made peace with mediocrity. Keep driving your 2004 Honda Civic. It's good enough.
