A model that (at least in benchmarks) is getting closer to SOTA. A clear separation between what’s used to improve their products and what’s not (at least this is what they claim).

Good job Meta! Seriously. This is almost making me forget about the 18B$ lawsuit for children social media addiction.

How is it not SOTA? It's beating 5.6 Sol.

    It's somewhat useful to note just for your own timelines that Fable was reportedly trained in February. I'm not sure when mythos 5.1 finished training, but muse spark 1.3 almost certainly finished more recently than that.

    This doesn't mean it's not one of the best models available (clearly it is), but that table didn't compare Fable/mythos (unless I missed it?) and OpenAI will be releasing a much more recently trained model (Astra) any day.

    So you shouldn't think "wow, Facebook has caught up"

    You should think, "wow, Facebook is less than 6 months behind the frontier" and that they're actually creating good models which is going to be good in many ways (price for customers, for one!)

    There are downsides too, but I'll discuss those separately somewhere
