When NOT to use WizardLM
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- If real-time updates are needed beyond Nov 2023, as performance is based on past benchmarks
- When looking for broad language capabilities of GPT-4, which outperformance in some benchmarks
