Open weights is great, useful for various things, but without open data and open training code, it&#39;s just not open source.

This would obviously not be equivalent to a model like LLAMA where the weights are released but not the training data. Looking ahead, why would we allow llama to pretend to be equivalent to this future open data LLM? 2024-10-29T08:00:35Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsxd7tdy6j20gheppkcfeetl28kqw5l5jzw4efsa5qy7hnajl8xa9qzyr8hja7pxp55zzk60lk3kzwsml4qyfesc0a6n3rqezhh75y463vazqrvxek In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqj94p055ucr9gtee3hckd579rtp0whvsl7dm64zk66h2cg0s09ws2jcd4p'>nevent1q…cd4p</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Some might justify closed training data by saying &#34;ah but I just want to fine tune models, I don&#39;t want the training data, in fact I couldn&#39;t afford to train a model with the training data from scratch&#34;.<br/><br/>I would argue:<br/><br/>* you couldn&#39;t afford to train a 100B parameter model from the training data NOW. But technology has a habit of advancing.<br/><br/>* even if YOU couldn&#39;t afford to train a 100B parameter model, research or commercial organisations might be able to, were the training data available. 2024-10-29T08:00:02Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqj94p055ucr9gtee3hckd579rtp0whvsl7dm64zk66h2cg0s09wszyr8hja7pxp55zzk60lk3kzwsml4qyfesc0a6n3rqezhh75y463vaz9207nx The open source institute has released a definition of Open Source applied to AI language models, that does not require the sources of the model to be made available.<br/><a href="https://opensource.org/blog/the-open-source-initiative-announces-the-release-of-the-industrys-first-open-source-ai-definition">https://opensource.org/blog/the-open-source-initiative-announces-the-release-of-the-industrys-first-open-source-ai-definition</a><br/><br/>This seems absolutely crazy to me and indicates that commercial interests have overcome all other considerations. 2024-10-29T07:57:40Z
