Question: since they've rebooted their approach to AI... have they given up on open models? There's no mention of open source or open weights or access to the models beyond their hosted services.

Alexandr Wang on Twitter [0] mentioned open source plans:

"this is step one. bigger models are already in development with infrastructure scaling to match. private api preview open to select partners today, with plans to open-source future versions. incredibly proud of the MSL team. excited for what’s to come!"

So the answer is: no. lol. Remember Llama 4 Behemoth, and how we were supposed to get more great models from it?

This may be too large to run locally anyway. Maybe they will distill down some smaller open versions later.
