It's a base model. It hasn't been instruction tuned to "solve problems" necessarily. All it can do is attempt to complete text given some starting text.
Say I want to auto-bookmark a bunch of tabs and need a summary of each one. Using the title is a mechanical solution, but a nice prompt and a small model can summarize the title and contents into something much more useful.
A whole lot of machine learning practitioners use X. Makes it difficult to avoid if you're interested in the news. It's definitely a network effect issue.
