The allegation here is that it's not actually a fine-tune of Qwen, but instead an undisclosed mashup (merge) of someone else's fine-tune of Qwen and the original model. Rio subsequently said that the model was in fact a merge, that they did additional fine-tuning after the merge, and that they accidentally uploaded the base merge instead of the version with additional fine-tuning. But this seems like quite an oversight...

Not to me, what would people like to happen? Who are those people? And why do they care?
They made a public claim to having produced a useful model, which they published. Turns out they did nothing of the sort.

Why does anyone ever care about having their time wasted by fraudulent claims?
Continue to explain like I’m 5 instead of the rhetoricals
