About the Good, and the Bad, of AI

Today's News

Open Source for AI

The term "open source" in the context of large language models (LLMs) like Llama 2 lacks a clear definition, posing a fundamental question in the AI community. Unlike traditional software, LLMs involve complex neural network architectures with weights as a critical component. The open source definition may not neatly apply to these weights, as they can't be directly modified. Some suggest considering curated training data as the source code, but this raises ownership issues. The challenges extend to licensing the neural network architecture and handling model variations. Clear definitions are crucial as AI adoption grows, demanding clarity on usage rights and restrictions.
