Your license says it can be used commercially by anyone while Llama's license says it can only be used for research purpose. Isn't your license bound by the Llama usage license ?
Yes we have three set of models. One based on llama - which you are right, cannot be used commercial. We have two additional models based on MPT-7 base and Falcon-7B which can be used commercially with no obligations!
There is Open Llama 7B available that is Apache 2.0 licensed. Would you consider fine tuning that one as well for a commercial use of this with Llama model?
> while Llama's license says it can only be used for research purpose
Minor nitpick, but we still don't have a clear legal answer on whether this would be binding to people who didn't sign that agreement, because we still don't have a clear legal answer on whether model weights are covered by copryight.
That being said, it is good for projects to point out that there's uncertainty over whether Llama can be used commercially; so I agree with the overall point.
It’s further unclear whether a fine tuned model which has different weights counts as a copyright violation at all. Doesn’t stop a wealthy company from suing though.
AIUI it uses the Llama architecture, but not Facebook's Llama weights. It uses MPT-7B, which was trained from scratch: https://www.mosaicml.com/blog/mpt-7b
I think the best blocking system, if you have a regular job which provides work laptops would be, just use your work computer for everything. Lock up your personal laptop somewhere.
Your website looks great. I didn't try the product. Can I ask how you did the design and UI of your landing page? Did you do it yourself or contracted someone to do it?
The first field says 'your name' but doesn't accept a name which contains space. Is that supposed to be user name? If yes, the text box should say that. Other than that, it worked great.
Ease of use is definitely one factor which looks important, but also remember that there is an added cost of the device as well as a possible recurring cost as someone is doing some work to make your device available on the internet. This added cost might be a deterrent for people who are concerned about privacy but still not too concerned. I am just wondering if a mass adoption is at all possible ? I understand that there will be people who understand the system well enough to need such thing.
Regarding you0r 'single point of failure' comment, I think indeed this would be a single point of failure and of course, the data that you own, cannot be protected in a way big corporations can do which is the crux of the argument, that is, do you care about security/reliability of your data more or privacy ? The googles and facebooks are keeping the data secure but we can't know who all have access to our private data. Are privacy concerns a big enough deal for people that they would be willing to move their data from the cloud onto their possession, and in the process, maybe take some hit on the security/reliability ?
