I keep seeing people posting about how the new Phind is the most amazing thing on the planet, and I kept thinking “We already have Phind… see, I have the gguf right here!”
I finally looked at the phind paper on their newest model, and it says that their current model is v7.

:O Huggingface only goes up to v2.
I can’t tell if Phind is a proprietary model that just happened to give us an older version, if there will be newer versions coming out, or what. Does anyone happen to know?
What are you surprised about? Yes, it’s 5 versions younger, they’re running a data flywheel, definitely scraping GPT-4 interactions when people use it through their website; v2 was just a shout-out to the community, to build goodwill and bring attention to their project. They’ve said on HN that they might release newer models – when they’re no longer close to SoTA.
It’s business, not charity.
