- echelon 2y agoTraining costs will come down. We already have hacks for switching mathematical operators and precision. We originally used to program machines on room-sized computers, yet we now all have access. "Open source" should include the training code and the data. Anything you need to train from scratch or fine tune. Otherwise it's just a binary artifact.
- JoshTriplett 2y agoIn the early days of Open Source, many people didn't have access to a computer, and those who had access to a computer often didn't have access to development tools. The aspirations of early Open Source became more and more feasible as more people had access to technology, but the definitions still targeted developers.
