- balaji1 3y agowhat is the financial incentive to make it open-source?
- echelon 3y agoEverything accrues to OpenAI if it's not. More companies should be releasing models as open source and liberally licensed if they want to keep a seat at the table. Otherwise they'll get washed away.
- balaji1 3y ago> Everything accrues to OpenAI if it's not. because OpenAI is not open-source? Then a closed source StableLM would accrue value to Stability?
- echelon 3y agoNobody gives a damn about closed source StableLM. It'll die off in the evolutionary fight as strictly inferior. (How many people are using Claude or Bard?) By being open source, StableLM will grow with the community. An ecosystem of mods, plugins, libraries, frontends, and more will be developed. Different companies will even compare notes and contribute upstream. Everyone participating wins.

- lolinder 3y agoThis model is open source. Period. Whether they close off future models is irrelevant to whether this one is open.
