alt Hacker NewsI'm all for open models, but people seem to misunderstand what they are. They aren't the same thing as open source code!

Even if you have all these things you still can't replicate a model because of randomness.
You can backdoor a model with less than 1000 examples and it is impossible to detect.

You don't want to replicate the exact model, you want to build a system of similar capabilities.

Yeah - we also don't know if the models from OpenAI and anthropic are back-doored either.
