  More like regression than evolution.

    There's a gold rush going on right now. And everything AI-related is the gold. Hence non-open-source is now totally-open-source-don't-you-say-a-bad-thing-about-it-source! See: OpenAI. Actually it's now totally OK to loooove megacorps and their lovely and caring ways to do things, after all it's totally a GOOD thing only a few select megacorps can do cutting edge training otherwise some closet nazi may build a hitler bot in his basent!

      It's been totally OK to love corporations for about two decades running... ever since some clown told everyone that they should provide them with free labor (which is their idea of what 'free software' really means).

      I'm not sure you understand what the Open Source movement was pushing for in the first place. Exploitation of labour was, very literally, the main argument ESR put forward in favour of the Bazaar model -- and it is the reason Open Source as a term exists.

  Rather, it is the dilution of the meaning of open source because true and pure open source such as GPL or Apache is too powerful for some people to accept.

    TIL that giving innovations away to the bourgeoisie is 'powerful'. This is obviously some bizarre sado-masochistic definition of 'powerful' I was not previously familiar with involving whips, chains, and dragons.
