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

      Yes please, let’s use this term, and reserve Open Source for it’s existing definition in the academic ML setting of weights, methods, and training data. These models don’t readily fit into existing terminology for structure and logistic reasons, but when someone says “it’s got open weights” I know exactly what set of licenses and implications it may have without further explanation.
