> Meta's open-source approach makes this possible

I'm sorry, was this article drafted in 2024 and never updated?

The models in question have source and weights available. AFAIK not fully FOSS because the weights require registration to access.

This sort of random out of date comment is a common LLM writing trope. Though it is true that the segment anything model is open source.

They have another with calling A100s modern.

> A100 GPUs — the high-performance computing chips that power today's most advanced AI systems.

They might not have written it with AI, but the article has a lot of em dashs and colons and not this but that statements.

SAM3.1 was released and open sourced March 2026.

But what's the point of correcting you? People will continue to propagate their own lies.

This is a false statement.

> Your use of the SAM Materials will not involve or encourage others to reverse engineer, decompile or discover the underlying components of the SAM Materials. > Your use of the DINO Materials will not involve or encourage others to reverse engineer, decompile or discover the underlying components of the DINO Materials.

It is not open source, thus the statement is false and a "lie". Nothing here is "open source".

Sure, I just find using OSS grand standing, and trying to educate the audience about the benefits of OSS a bit distasteful after Meta pulled away from OSS for their main flagship models.

None of their flagship models were open source.
