Hi,  
I love the stats about how many times our model has been downloaded. What I would like to know is who is using these the model and through which repos. Is there a way to see more details/analytics of model usage?  
Thanks,  
-James

Hi James!

What kind of details would you like to have? For privacy reasons, we don’t log which specific user is downloading which models. We have high-level stats (downloads per day/week/month), but can’t provide fine grained stats

So this is our repo:

> **[cerebras/btlm-3b-8k-base · Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/cerebras/btlm-3b-8k-base)**
>
> We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.

It has 1m downloads…but when people ask me how are people using our model, I have no way of answering. I understand the need to preserve privacy, but would be great if there’s some way to know how the model is being used, see derivative works from the model etc.
