Can we assume that the author isn't using "Opensource" to mean "Openweights"?

Or are we still collectively brainwashed by the strategic false equivalence established by Big AI CMOs?

On this very thread you already have people talking about "open weights" and similar nonsense. What is open about them? They're free to download, but that hardly qualifies as open. Where is the source? Where are the instructions to modify and build your own?

I'd never though I'd have to utter the expression "open as in beer".

The blatant attempt at manipulating vocabulary here is... quite blatant.
