  • Fine-tuning for domain-specific language tasks

Pros

  • Open license allows modification and redistribution
  • Small enough to run on consumer GPUs
  • Good baseline for experimentation

Cons

  • Smaller model means lower accuracy on complex tasks compared to larger models
  • Limited context window and less nuanced understanding
  • Community-driven support may have slower updates
