How does it compare against unequalised Llama 3 8B at 16fp? I’ve been using that locally and it’s almost replaced GPT4 for me. Runs in about 14GB of VRAM.

llama3 is nowhere near gpt4, though it is cool

What is your use case where you find it comparable to gpt4?

For creative tasks, for example, Llama 3 is much better. GPT-4 is very sterile, Llama is much more whimsical, and has a lot more character.

> For creative tasks

What, specifically, are you asking of these LLMs? "creative tasks" can be anything from programming to cooking recipes, so a tiny bit more specificality would be appreciated :)

[stavros]

Sorry, I meant making up stuff, e.g. creative writing.

[LordDragonfang]

I've used pretty much every major LLM out there for a specific type of creative writing, and none of them are as good at it as GPT4 with the exception of maybe Claude (Opus is actually probably even better regarding the sterility). Llama 3, even 70b, is definitely not better by any measure of actual quality - it's more random, at best.

So like making presentations? Composing poems? Writing novellas/novels? Technical articles?
