> A big thank you to people who pointed out similarities to previous research in the comments. We realized that our architecture is very similar to OpenBMB’s “MiniCPM-Llama3-V 2.5: A GPT-4V Level Multimodal LLM on Your Phone,” who beat us to the implementation. We have taken down our original model in respect to the authors.

Oh okay, so these are two different academic projects.

I was thinking this might have been a commercial organization stealing from an open source project or something.

> This is the strongest evidence that llama3-V does not train its model at all, but adds random Gaussian noise to the model parameters of miniCPM-llama3-v2.5

And not just "built on without attribution", but a literal copy between the products with minimal changes.
