Meta's model isn't open source (and neither is "Open"AI's, hilariously). It's free to use for most purposes but we don't know what data or algorithms they used to train it. Regardless, I'm excited for these companies to eat each other with the result being free software. It's the very least they can do given all the data that had to be stolen to build these.
- wlesieutre 3y agoIt's much more akin to distributing a freeware-for-noncommercial-use executable, which nobody ever confuses for being "open source". They're providing the output of their training pipeline but no way to reproduce the build yourself. Surely there's a better term for it, "open weights" or something?
