its under new license prohibiting any commercial use.
- Zetaphor 6mo agoThe statement was that China was giving up on open weights, they didn't say anything about licensing. Licensing on these models has always been hit or miss depending on which lab and which release.
- andriy_koval 6mo agobut context of the statement is discussion about corps do grab and rent strategy. My understanding is that referenced Chinese model can't be argument in this context, and there is no recent 200B+ params Chinese models with friendly license. That license is more like business source license vs open source license.
