IBM Granite: A Family of Open Foundation Models for Code Intelligence

I wonder why companies like IBM are jumping on the LLM bandwagon and training/releasing models that have no chance of competing with Llama/Mistral? To me it just looks like a complete waste of $$ because nobody will use them in any serious scenarios

IBM made $60 billion in revenue last year. Where do you think it all came from? The same companies/governments that buy their overpriced crap are going to buy these new LLMs as well.

When they pitch potential clients for their services, their slides on LLM, AI, ML, etc., must be their own. Whether they use it or not for the services does not matter. These are like the side projects that service companies release to help them close their clients.
