Are the weights available since it's based on Meta Llama 3.1 405B?

Serious question: does the Meta LLama ToS / EULA even allow fine-tuned models based on Llama to be used for commercial purposes without making the weights available?

Been subscribed to phind pro for the last 5 or 6 months I think? Feels like the pollution from search results has gotten a bit better but it sometimes still messes with answers when I ask a follow up question. Like I will reference the answer aboves code in my question, and the next answer will answer based not on the conversation but some code in the search results. I'm not versed enough in rag to know how you would…

We're working on artifacts :) May I ask which models you're seeing the pollution with?

Has happened with both 4o and sonnet, probably 4o more if I had to say for sure. I need to use 405 more to see if it has that same problem. I guess I didn't think about how the issue might be better or worse depending on model, I assumed the rag stuff applied the same

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I use it, with the phind models, instead of chatGPT. I had to change my user agent to Chrome since too many sites would refuse to work with FF otherwise, and now chatGPT is stuck in an endless captcha loop whenever I go there. I am just a casual user, to help write a quick script or to get some bit of relevant info. It works just as well or better for my use case, and of course having actual citations with links is w…

My friend has the endless captcha loop on ChatGPT too. Does anyone know how to fix it?

I had that recently and it went away last time on its own. Not sure what triggers it or how to fix.

I'd suggest offering at least one free query to allow users to evaluate the service.

Our fast model, Phind Instant, is completely free

Maybe OP was referring to Phind-405B (the model from the article). I certainly wonder how good the 405B model really is.

"Phind-405B scores 92% on HumanEval (0-shot), matching Claude 3.5 Sonnet". I'd love to see examples of actual code modifications created by Phind and Sonnet back-to-back. This level of transparency would give me the confidence to try to pro. As it is, I'm skeptical by the claim and actual performance as I've yet to see a finetuned model from Llama3.1 that performed notably better in an area without suffering problems in other areas. We do need more options!

The effectiveness of any given model depends on the specific use cases. We noticed that Phind-405B is particularly good at making websites and included some zero-shot examples in the blog.

Why not let us try the new model for free like the 5 uses available for the 70B model? Seems like a no brainer to hook new users if what you're selling is worth it, eh?

I was a Phind user for a bit but I've switched to Perplexity lately. Anyone know how the two compare?

We should have higher quality and faster answers across the board with this new update. Would love to hear your thoughts.

It'd be cool if you showed off and did your own comparison and posted it on your blog. It'd also be cool if your blog was sorted newest to oldest - it's currently the reverse.
