In the age of Large Language Models, large blobs will become the rule, not the exception. You’re not going to retrain models costing $100M to build from scratch because of the limitations of your SCM.

I don’t store those in my scm. It’s not a limitation of my scm that I can’t store a 20gig model directly in the repo.

So you’re right, I’m not going to retrain models costing $100M because of SCM limitations. That’s because I don’t have any SCM limitations.
