On the other side of the coin, they've distracted a huge amount of attention from OpenAI and have open source optimisations appearing for every platform they could ever consider running it on, for no extra expense.
If it was a deliberate leak, it was a good idea.
- Salgat 4y agoThat's a good point. They knew they couldn't compete with ChatGPT (even if performance was comparable, GPT has a massive edge in marketing) so they did the next best thing. This gives Meta a massive boost both to visibility and to open source contributions that ironically no other business can legally use.
- FooBarWidget 4y agoIf it was deliberate then why "leak" it instead of open sourcing it?
- paconbork 4y agoYou avoid taking flak from the Responsible AI people that way
- ru552 4y agoDing ding ding. "Leaks" are sometimes a strategy play.
- Salgat 4y agoAs I mentioned in my comment, a leak means that no other company (your competition) can use it, and you get to integrate all the improvements made by other people on it back into your closed source product.
