I feel like the blog post, and GP comment, does a good job of explaining how it's built to be a small model easily fine tuned for narrow tasks, rather than used for general tasks out of the box. The latter is guaranteed to hallucinate heavily at this size, that doesn't mean every specific task it's fine tuned to would be. Some examples given were fine tuning it to efficiently and quickly route a query to the right place to actually be handled or tuning it to do sentiment analysis of content.

An easily fine tunable tiny model might actually be one of the better uses of local LLMs I've seen yet. Rather than try to be a small model that's great at everything it's a tiny model you can quickly tune to do one specific thing decently, extremely fast, and locally on pretty much anything.
