If I found out my lawyer was using an LLM, I would fire them immediately. Why is everyone using this slop. An LLM can't even center a fkin div reliably.

Sounds nice except that these are 1 very small scale model, 1 reranker, and 1 embedding model that are far from frontier LLM level. And they're not open sourced. As much as I agree with the message, this reads like marketing copy trying to make a big deal out of a tiny model being hosted privately.

At least, there'll be less slops on internet.
