OSI has been compromised since the beginning by large corporations, the fact that their crappy "Open Source AI definition" does not allow access and distributio

  While OSI don't require the training data itself to be under a FOSS license, they do still at least require "the complete description of all data used for training", including where to obtain it, such that "a skilled person can build a substantially equivalent system". I think there's a legitimate tension between pragmatism and ideals, without necessarily a clear answer. Needing to be able to relicense/distribute all training data would be a significant constaint on the feasibility of developing open-source models, possibly entirely suffocating when even simple models tend to be pretrained on ImageNet/etc.
