## Choose when

### Choose StableLM if…

- Tags unique to StableLM: ai-research, language-models, model-training, open-source.
- When targeting research into the impact of multi-epoch token repetition on model performance, as StableLM is specifically designed around this concept.
- More GitHub stars (16k vs 8.8k) - visibility, not fit.

### Choose awesome-LLM-resources if…

- Tags unique to awesome-LLM-resources: awesome-list, book, course, large language models.
- Also covers AI Agents, Developer Tools, Evaluation & Observability, Inference & Serving, Model Training.
- - It's ideal when you seek an exhaustive and up-to-date compilation covering extensive knowledge points in LLM technologies.

## When NOT to use StableLM

- If your project requires the strictest data privacy guarantees since some models are under less restrictive licenses, limiting their usage in projects with such constraints.
- For applications needing larger language models than 13 billion parameters, as StableLM's largest model is StableVicuna-13B.

## When NOT to use awesome-LLM-resources

- - Avoid using this resource if you specifically need detailed step-by-step guides or hands-on tutorials that focus deeply on a single technology rather than broad coverage.
- - It might not be the best choice when you are looking for resources in languages other than English, especially given its extensive English content.
