Keep fighting the good fight. Saying Llama is open source is straight up lying. It's open weights.

- diggan 2y agoThank you, sometimes it feels weird to argue against people who are generally pro-FOSS but somehow for LLMs are fine with misleading statements. I'm glad at least one other person can see through it, encouraging I'm on the right track :) I'm not sure I'd even call Llama "open weights". For me that would mean I can download the weights freely (you cannot download Llama weights without signing a license agreement) and use them freely, you cannot use them freely + you need to add a notice from Meta/Llama on everything that uses Llama saying: > prominently display “Built with Llama” on a related website, user interface, blogpost, about page, or product documentation. https://www.llama.com/llama3_2/license/ https://www.llama.com/llama3_2/license/ Not sure what the correct label is, but it's not open source nor open weights, as far as I can tell.
