sure a model could theoretically be open source, but in this case that source would be 1) the software to train the model and 2) the training data, and good fucking luck getting either of those honestly.

the AI sphere has co-opted the term “open source” because it sounds nice, what they actually mean is just “a free copy”, a free copy of deepseek is available for download.

They seem to be able to fiddle a lot with the models, but in the end calling it open source is just blatantly not fucking true.

Only problem i have with lemmy is that after scrolling for a bit i end up wading through posts with 0 comments and 2 upvotes, which are inevitably just links to something i do not give a singular toss about.

But that’s honestly kinda just good, it forces me to not just stare at my computer nonstop.

It’s perfectly adequate, i tolerate it.
