And by the way, his model finetuned with 0613 data ended up significantly worse than his former model finetuned with 0314 data.
I can only imagine how much worse it’ll get once the regulation they’re working on comes into place. A cartel of Microsoft and Google slowly watering down their public models while keeping the powerful ones to themselves or business partners
