Maybe a bit better than that - so far research says it gets similar performance to other models of same size (that startup is pushing a 1.2b param model, gpt3 was ~1.75b).

I like to think somewhere, someone, when reintroduced to the codename PQRS, Mandela Effect's it as an actual Roman game 😆

I lol'ed at this old comment
"if you rearrange the letters from the second project they were working on from PQRS to SPQR you get the Latin phrase meaning Senatus Populusque Romanus which means “The Senate and People of Rome.” Perhaps a clue as to what that mysterious game may be about…?"
