Surely someone will soon do what the title of this post makes it seem like cloudfare did. Truly modular open source training and inference logic, along with a totally open corpus and weights, will eventually out-compete the closed ecosystem.

Ok, we've put weights instead of source in the title, at least until someone comes along and says that's not right either!
