The story so far
Weights, every dated article, and repo commits on one rail.
Most coverage came in the first two weeks
Teal is the weights (2023-07-18), amber triangles are 10 dated articles (each links to it), grey ticks are repo commits.

Picked by rule from 28 tracked pieces: the lab's own post, the most shared, a field report, the latest.
Fine-tuning open-source Llama 2 models can replace GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 for specific tasks, with a fine-tuned Llama 7B matching GPT-4 labels 95% of the time on a test set.
The 2 picks above, plus these 23. Top is the radar's score: discussion, source authority and the lab's own posts, fading with age.
Live hosted endpoints, cheapest first, USD per million tokens. Ties break on output price, then provider name.

Hugging Face does not say who downloads a model or with what. These are the proxies: API providers listing it, quantized builds, fine-tunes/adapters/merges, and Spaces that load it.
Served by 1 API provider; 11 quantized builds for local use; a big base for builders (225 fine-tunes, adapters and merges).
Top Spaces running it: Yeyito/llm_contamination_detector ♥ 27 · Ligeng-Zhu/VILA ♥ 4 · bfshi/VILA-HD-demo ♥ 4 · Ailaysa-AI/Asai-Tamil-Tokenizer ♥ 4
Weights only, an estimate: leave room for the KV cache. Method
About 4.0 GB at INT4, 8.1 GB at FP8, 16 GB at BF16: weights only, so leave room for the KV cache.

Labels are evidence, not verdicts: measured a third-party leaderboard row for this model; author-reported a number the model author published in the card or eval files; structural a deterministic signal from the name, config or chat template, or a decision-model estimate. Each chip links to its source. All use cases.
