Model routing seems like a piece of the Ai stack that will quickly distill into industry if it is even that useful. I remain unconvinced that you need on the fly choice making beyond provider downtime. More likely you want to evaluate some

Distillation is used to build part of a data set for fine-tuning (loosely interpreted). Advanced model traces are useless if you don't have a base model that is good enough to be improved by them.

I think for services it's the same, doesn't matter if it is open or closed model. For someone downloading and running it on their own, I suspect they cannot. Better to criminalize the act of sharing than the proverbial paint brush

I suspect they are using their mouths to secure their (on paper) money. If anyone can run any open weight model, the financial projections to pay back all that debt and investor cash are dubious.

Are Mark's musings hallow or hollow while Meta Muse remains closed? To be clear, I really like a lot of what Zuck says in this OpEd. He needs to put his money where his mouth is for me to believe he is sincere.

I find it hard to debate when you cannot acknowledge our own (american) propaganda and the effect it has on our people. Watching international news will show you things you cannot find from domestic sources. France24 is my primary. Another
