> I don't think the concept of open source translates very well to model weights. I think it translates pretty well. Model weights are not really that different from other non-code assets, like images or 3D models. If i can bundle open source code with such assets and offer the whole application under open source license, then such assets are open source. If the license of such assets prohibits that, they are clearly not open source. There is question about what is 'source code' for such assets and how to apply copyleft licenses like GPL to them, but non-copyleft open source licenses like MIT/X11 do not care about that and could be easily applied on model weights or any other assets.
