Comment on DeepSeek Proves It: Open Source is the Secret to Dominating Tech Markets (and Wall Street has it wrong).

  I just looked it up.

  “The AI research company DeepSeek recently released its large language model (LLM) under the MIT License, providing model weights, inference code, and technical documentation. However, the company did not release its training code, sparking a heated debate about whether DeepSeek can truly be considered “open-source.”

  This controversy stems from differing interpretations of what constitutes open-source in the context of large language models. While some argue that without training code, a model cannot be considered fully open-source, others highlight that DeepSeek’s approach aligns with industry norms followed by leading AI companies like Meta, Google, and Alibaba.”

  So fake open-source.
