But as you just said… it was leaked
- JumpCrisscross 3y agoIt was "leaked." They wanted to distribute it. But they couldn't, politically. So it "leaked."
- bick_nyers 3y agoYou can tell by Mark's wording and body language when he talks about it in the recent Lex Fridman episode. I got the impression from him that he would have released it in a manner closer to that of open source if there wasn't a question of legal liability.
- IshKebab 3y agoWhy couldn't they distribute it? They clearly could have. There's no law against it. Perhaps you meant that they were nervous about companies using it commercially and either bringing them bad press or making money off their work? That's clearly why they only released it for researchers.
- JumpCrisscross 3y ago> Why couldn't they distribute it? No legal issues per se. Hence the political qualifier. See: https://www.menendez.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/letter_to_meta_on_cryptocurrency_scams.pdf https://www.menendez.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/letter_to_meta...
- elcomet 3y agoIt was trained on data they don't own. They could face a lawsuit for this, like it has happened for image generation models.
- Havoc 3y agoIf you want to consider filling in a form and downloading it a "leak" then yeah it was leaked. I wouldn't call it that but semantics I guess
- Uehreka 3y agoI think people are referring to the part where someone made a torrent so you could get it without filling in the form as the leak.
- Havoc 3y agoI see. Thanks for explaining. Yeah I guess that re-distribution was a little rogue and could perhaps be called a leak. I personally dislike that interpretation but I can see it.

- edgyquant 3y agoNo it’s the part after that where the torrent was leaked to the public that I’d consider a leak.
