You see this on GitHub already. People publish paper results and manuals, along with a few files, and treat that as if it were open source. And this isn’t limited to LLMs, people with CNN papers or crawlers and other results publish a few files and the results on GitHub as if it were open source. I think this is a clash between current scientific community thinking + Big Tech vs Free Software + Free Culture initiatives.
Additionally, you can’t expect something Microsoft/Meta touches to remain untainted for long.
