Phi was cool for what it was. But it's not 2024 anymore.
Phi was pretty revolutionary for its time. The accompanying paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.11644 has been pretty instrumental in pushing the idea of highly curated synthetic dataset to train model. The lead scientist behind Phi-1 is now VP at OpenAI and leading their own synthetic training dataset effort.
