It's not about that. Open Source is more like a designation. It is an agreed upon set of requirements that, if you change a requirement, it is something else. This is important. Some things have legally protected designations such as 'ice cream'. Ice Cream has specific meaning in industry and even a grading system. If someone wants to make a cheaper product than the lowest grade of ice cream, they can't call it ice cream, they have to call it something like: frozen dairy dessert. This makes it easy for people understand what they are actually getting and paying for. I wouldn't get indignant about mandating english language definitions. I would be indignant that ai companies are not fulfilling the requirements to call it open source and are providing a cheaper product than the abilities that an actual open source model would provide. |
