Comment on An Open Source Pioneer Wants to Unleash Open Source AI Robots

Since it’s already a Pandora’s box as it is, at least open-source is the least-worst way to go. All closed-source models are evil(er).

Open source is much less useful with AI though since you can neither inspect how it works exactly nor modify that one thing that bothers you about the current behavior.

That’s increasingly untrue as we build tools to inspect and modify those weights. Nearly every open model has homegrown LoRA support, and most of them have abliteration code that lets you erase undesirable behaviors.

And if we're really talking about "open-source" and not just "open-weight", the scientific papers, datasets and tooling are going to help democratize the technology and even out the playing field to a degree.
