Ignoring the fact that this is a 1 day old account, why should I care that this LLM's bars are larger and numbers bigger? Is this corporate blogpost actually good content for anyone? What is the appeal other than "yup, that blue bar sure is longer than the other color bars."?

Just one observation. This model seems "less" multilingual than LLAMA and Mistral. I always ask in Portuguese "What is the capital of Bahia?"/ "Qual a capital da Bahia?" and DeciLM answered wrong and in English ( it said it was Brasilia, the right answer is Salvador). The other models replied correctly.

For someone who is a bit techie, but not familiar with much past the original PyTorch, can I get an explanation of why this should matter to me? Are we at the point yet where I can give one of these LLMs a list of characters and an introductory paragraph, and get a 100K word book out of it yet? Totally not asking because I have too many ideas and not enough time to write them all...

> The Fastest and Most Accurate 7B-Parameter LLM to Date There's plainly 7B models that surpass it on https://huggingface.co/spaces/HuggingFaceH4/open_llm_leaderb... Am I missing something?

You have to look at the pre-trained models and not the "tuned" models. Its number one in that category (which is what I think they are referring to, given the benchmarks are against Mistral and llama)
