But higher parameters allow for broader knowledge right? You can't have a 6-20B model have broad knowledge as a 100B+ model, right?

At this point we don't really know what is bottlenecking. More params is an easyish way to capture more knowledge if you have the architecture and the $$... but there are a lot of other techniques available that increase the efficiency of the parameters.

Yes but how many parameters must you actually have to store all the knowledge you realistically need. Maybe a few billion parameters is enough to store the basics of every concept known to man and more specific details can be stored in an external file that the neural net can access with API calls.
