  • What kind of use-cases was it, where you didn’t find suitable local models to work with ?

    Any time you ask very domain specific questions; eg “i have collected some soil samples from the mesolithic age near the Amazon basin which have high sulfur and phosphorus content compared to my other samples. What factors could contribute to this distribution?”, both of-the-shelf local models & OpenAI fail.

    The main reason is because these models are not trained on highly-specialized domains of text. Sometimes the models start hallucinating and which reduces our trust upon them.

















  • Use Librewolf if

    • You do not approve of Mozilla’s direction with Firefox (I personally don’t have an issue)
    • You don’t want to be fingerprinted by every websites
    • Want to be very privacy conscious

    If these are not your requirements, stick with Firefox. When you switch to Librewolf, you have to give up some QoL features (dark mode, adaptable screen size and more). Unfortunately, privacy in the modern web requires some sacrifice.
