Office space meme:
“If y’all could stop calling an LLM “open source” just because they published the weights… that would be great.”

Let’s transfer your bullshirt take to the kernel, shall we?
The kernel is instructions, not code. It’s perfectly fine to call it open source even though you don’t have the code to reproduce the kernel from scratch. You are allowed to modify and distribute said modifications so it’s functionally free (as in freedom) anyway.

Edit: It’s more that so-called “AI” stakeholders want to launder it’s reputation with the “open source” label.
